Several years into GDPR, it remains fucking bonkers in practice. Every site on the internet gets an awful pop-up that no one reads and clicks anything to make it go away as quickly as possible. It’s an idea that 100% backfired and is pointless and makes every website worse.

Just amazing. Every link blog that links to tweets now just link to a dumb interstitial (unless you happen to be logged in to Twitter on that particular browser — which, if you’re using, say, an RSS reader, you’re not. Or coming from elsewhere, you’re not). Stupid. Stupid. Stupid
Twitter no longer lets users browse tweets, user profiles, and comment threads on the web without logging in, redirecting Twitter URLs to the sign in page (

Still one of the strangest phenomenons of the web, to me. The reluctance to read (and share) anything that isn’t brand new. Even though in a non-news environment, ‘best’ and ‘newest’ overlap rarely, and only by coincidence.

So confused by the hysteria here, on texts, on Slacks. This is all playing out as expected so far. Maybe not as some had hoped, but this comes down to the “Blue Wall”. And that Blue Wall early count is skewed by lagging early vote counts.

We're getting too far into the weeds with all this. It seems pretty simple at a higher level: App Store rules and policies were created for the world as it was a decade ago. The world is not as it was a decade ago. Apple should create new guidelines for the world as it is now.
