Big news for digital privacy in Delaware! The state legislature has passed a major amendment to the Delaware Personal Data Privacy Act (DPDPA). If signed into law, it will take effect on January 1, 2027, making it one of the most robust privacy frameworks in the U.S. 🛡️

Here is what you need to know:

Tighter Controls: It significantly lowers the number of consumers a company can process data for before being required to comply, bringing more businesses under the law's reach.

Expanded "Sensitive Data": The definition now includes neural data, national origin, reproductive health status, government IDs, and financial account info. Companies will generally be prohibited from selling this data without your explicit consent.

AI & Profiling Rights: You gain more control over how algorithms use your data to make life-altering decisions (like credit, housing, or hiring). If you are hit with an "adverse action" due to automated profiling, you have new rights to be notified and informed of the data used.

Transparency: You can now request a list of the specific third parties your data has been shared with, rather than just vague categories.

Analysis: "Proposals to move U.S. troops from the Gulf to Israel would empower Israeli aggression & keep the U.S. entangled in pointless war."

On top of a merger of US & Israeli military R&D, the admin wants to establish massive US military bases inside Israel.

Here’s why trying to turn Israel into America’s “aircraft carrier in the Middle East” makes the region a much more dangerous place...

@elsua54 For this reply... Yes! We are in a desperate situation:

It's all measurable even if you believe only 50% of #news and ignore other people's justified #complaints / experiences of 'work'.

Created / forced into debt / inflation,
Bad managers in most / all sectors,
Uncaring states doing bad work...

'Incentives' are different in meaning if in a desperate situation - abuse after the people are robbed previously / increasingly.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump

The Trump regime just launched a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court and block its powers.

NEW YORK Mr. Blanche’s actions, both as Deputy Attorney General and as Acting Attorney General, have repeatedly demonstrated that his primary loyalty is not to the United States Constitution or the rule of law but to President Donald J. Trump, whom Blanche previously represented as a private attorney and whose personal interests he has continued to protect.

TEXT: A federal judge has ruled that Donald Trump's speech at the Ellipse on January 6th, which incited an insurrection, was not an official act and therefore civil lawsuits against him may proceed. He may have avoided prison for now, but we can still take what matters most to him: his money.

Report: Anyone in Germany who publicly denies Israel’s right to exist or calls for its abolition could face up to five years in prison under a new draft law.

The proposal would probably violate Germany’s constitution. The govt research service said the law could create a "special right against a specific opinion & conflict with freedom of expression under Article 5 of the Basic Law".
