Nat Friedman Has Deleted His Flickr Account After More Than 15 Years
Earlier today Microsoft’s Chief Architect of GitHub Copilot, Balabhadra (Alex) Graveley, Microsoft GitHub Exposé — Part XI — Violence Against Women was in the docket after assaulting women]; his "best friend" (according to him) and outgoing GitHub CEO has decided it’s time to self-vanish; as we noted this morning, Mr. Graveley deleted/deactivated both his Twitter account and LinkedIn account

EPO's Illegal Surveillance Covered Up by Buzzwords Bingo and Acronyms: Data Protection Board (DPB), Data Protection Rules (DPR), and Data Protection Officer (DPO)

From One Form of Fake 'Independence' ('Exile') to Another Phony and Shallow 'Autonomy' (Webchats)
Earlier today in Daily Links we included about 5 very shallow articles (except this one; see the 17 comments in there; no matter how much the EPO‘s management lies and bribes the media, the “court of public opinion” has made up its mind); Working 'from' Munich over compulsory ‘ViCo’ is hardly regaining one’s independence, it’s all about optics
Slovenia Needs More Courageous Leadership (Like Vesna Stanković Juričić), Not 'Puppets' of the Patent and Copyright Cartels
