AmiMoJo's Journal: The great unsubscription

Thanks to the EU's GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) people in the EU have been getting a lot of requests to confirm their consent for storing and processing data lately. I get a lot from recruiters who have my details on their databases and need by consent to keep it.

The best part is that if you just ignore them they won't have your consent and must delete your data from their systems. It's a great way to unsubscribe from spam emails, which most of these recruiters are.

Thanks for cleaning up by inbox, EU.

One More Reason to Move to Europe

I've long thought about moving to France or somewhere one day. This is another positive for that idea. I wish the U.S. would make laws like that.

Lobbying, donations, and other forms of legalised corruption will sadly seem to assure that it won't happen. These are the same people that made it legal for your ISP to sell your browsing habits to anyone they feel like.
