Geez, so many advertisers I've allegedly "interacted with" according to Facebook on the Ad Preferences page. I cleared these out about six months ago and there's a LOT there again.
#
gRegorLove
Maybe it's like every advertiser they've shown me
#
gRegorLove
Hm, no. "With your contact info" what on earth.

Of course you can only remove by clicking on them individually.

FB seems to claim these are advertisers who have my contact info, and FB lets them match up my profile to their records so they can advertise to me.

Update: Moved IndieAuth to 1.com, and set up Own Your Swarm. 2.com is my blog/microblog, and where I want the updates sent to.
#
[unoabraham]
Unfortunately, the check-in was posted to 1.com.
#
[unoabraham]
I'm sure there is a workaround/fix, but the easier fix right now seems to be to set up IndieAuth on the domain where the actual content will be posted.

It looks like we don't have a page for "1.com" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "1.com is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
KartikPrabhu
jjuranI think it is an example
#

I don’t get it. 1.com is a reserved domain.

[unoabraham]
I'm just using 1.com, 2.com, 3.com as examples. I'm having content on multiple blogs, one specifically a photoblog, one a regular blog, and one a daily/microblog.
#
[unoabraham]
It is easy to POSSE all of this content to one Twitter ID, or a Facebook profile or page. IndieWeb on the other hand is not playing well. I'm trying to get IndieAuth on one domain working across all domains.
endi joined the channel
#
[unoabraham]
I would like to use my portfolio website (a single page website) for IndieAuth. However, as stated above when using Own Your Swarm the content is being posted to my portfolio website and not to my microblog.
#
[unoabraham]
I would prefer check ins, status updates, etc. to go to my microblog.

Folks using incoming webhooks, is that an app or are you posting on a website and the messages are getting crossposted to Slack?

Companies can now pay for access to all historic Slack messages — including DMs — even though Slack used to assure users they were private.

Has the state of custom domains on Medium been discussed recently? Recently they announced that custom domains were no longer supported, but now the help page for that has been removed: http://web.archive.org/web/20180301231401/https://help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005579728-Get-started-with-custom-domains
#
[manton]
Wondering if I missed that they had a change of heart.
#
sknebel
cweiske: agreed, not even basic information and using the "brand" so prominently isn't a good look
#
sknebel
Manton that looks more like they've decided to keep it that way, otherwise they wouldn't have removed the entire thing?
#
[manton]
Yeah, it's hard for me to say. The original title was "Get started with custom domains". I haven't been able to find an official policy anywhere else.

[eddie]
So I decided I'm expediting my removal of Facebook (https://eddiehinkle.com/2018/03/22/5/article/) and I expected that my friends and family on Facebook would be confused and think it was a horrible idea. It turns out, lots of "normal" people are very upset with Facebook and are not surprised I'm leaving.
#
Loqi
Leaving Facebook ... soon
#
[eddie]
I think the biggest challenge is I don't have a good solution for private sharing for them. My recommended ways to keep in touch with me are micro.blog or signing up for my periodic email that I'm going to have my website send. Worse case scenario: Twitter. However, of the feedback mechanisms (micro.blog or twitter) those both tend to really be public posting 🤔
#
[eddie]
I think that is the biggest hole in the IndieWeb armor right now
#
KartikPrabhu
that and setting up and managing you own website
#
[eddie]
Well, that's why I recommended micro.blog for the majority of my Facebook relations since none of them are techie. That would be their best option. A place to post thoughts and photos
#
[eddie]
It allows them to enter the IndieWeb with the least amount of friction currently
#
KartikPrabhu
[eddie]: but they then have to trust the micro.blog is not doing anything funny
#
KartikPrabhu
just like they trusted FB earlier
#
[eddie]
That is correct. Generally people tend to trust the "techie" friend in my circles. I don't know how many will take the leap, it's tough to get people to move from what they are used to
#
[eddie]
So I think "fear of change" is the biggest inhibitor rather than trusting micro.blog based on my recommendation
#
Zegnat
Have you thought of running a multi-user Known instance, being the “techie friend” already?
#
[eddie]
I have thought about that as I was drifting in and out of sleep this morning
#
[eddie]
I am considering bringing that up with my family at the very least
#
KartikPrabhu
Zegnat: that is fine for [eddie]'s immediate friends but then what about freinds of friends? and the whole "social graph" <pun intended>
#
KartikPrabhu
it is the "i'll move if all of my friends do also" problem
snarfed joined the channel
#
Zegnat
At some point they would be too far from [eddie] to trust his Known instnace by default. So they either find someone else to host a Known instance or have to trust a third party like micro.blog?

KartikPrabhu
Zegnat: yes, but that propagates through the "graph"
#

You can’t transport the entire social graph from Facebook to a single thing in one go anyway

yes, you can't but sometimes that is the criteria people use

Path is a content hosting silo for private sharing of information among a small (limit 150) group of friends https://indieweb.org/Path

Hmm, I think dgold said that specific paragraph Article 9(2)(e) actually didn’t apply at all?
#
dgold
9.2e is about specific forms of Private Data that a data subject makes publicly available
#
dgold
its an _exception_ to 9(1): viz
#
dgold
Processing of personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation shall be prohibited.
#
snarfed
will defer all of this to lawyers if/when necessary (hopefully never)
#
dgold
9(2)(e) only refers to that data in 9(1) which has been made public, I'd take it out of your GDPR statement (IAALBIAN_Y_L)
#
Zegnat
likes that abbreviation
#
dgold
You could say something like: Brid.gy does not process data, other than that processing which it is instructed to carry out by users: The transmission of public data from your website onwards to Internet Services, and the transmission of interactions with your posts on Internet Services back to your site.
#
snarfed
dgold: thanks for the help! bridgy really does only process public data though, by design. https://brid.gy/about#fully+public ...so in that case, does 9 2 e maybe still apply?
#
dgold
It applies where that data would otherwise be covered by 9(1), yes
#
dgold
hence you should make use of the long-neglected <blink> tag for the word public :-)
#
[tantek]
Wow lots this morning
#
dgold
snarfed: but it is not correct in its current form - I think that Brid.gy _is_ almost certainly exempt from most of GDPR, but not on the basis of 9(2)(e)

#
[eddie]
oh? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
#
snarfed
dgold: people say lots of things about their ethnicities, political opinions, etc in posts that bridgy handles, so 9.1 and 9.2.e still seem applicable, right?

it sure does seem like a good time for this

you might be held to the same standard, however, so you need to make sure you're cocked locked and ready to rock with data exporting & data deletion procedures

Considering that bridgy literally EXISTS to export data to the user’s controlled website, I think you are safe

#
dgold
this was something beaten into us in GDPR training

It also exports comments written by people who have not agreed to any terms from Bridgy, surely?

i haven't really looked into this yet, am i going to have to do anything in particular for the things i run like webmention.io or ownyourgram?

I don’t know how Bridgy works. E.g. if I have a post only visible to friends, will it backfeed comments on that? My friends have never posted that to be visible outside that specific audience, and definitely not on the public web. Surely they haven’t consented to have their data processed by Bridgy?

Someone was running a multi-user Known with open sign-up, skippy. But I forget who. Maybe #knownchat remembers
#
aaronpk
so is it basically that i need to make sure people have a way to download a file with all their info from my services?
#
dgold
pretty much, yes.
#
dgold
easiest & simplest
#
aaronpk
how do i know they are who they are making the request about?
#
aaronpk
since i assume this doesn't require that they have an account on my service to make the request
#
dgold
by making the download a `feature` of their logged-in status
#
dgold
then they're not a user of your service, and its hard to see how the GDPR applies
#
KartikPrabhu
"withknown" instead of "known"
#
dgold
you're not facebook, you're not scraping someone's phone contacts to get the names & addresses of their friends & family
#
aaronpk
with ownyourswarm, your friends' comments will also be pulled in
#
aaronpk
and they don't have an account with ownyourswarm
#
Zegnat
If you are a webmention endpoint, you may have scraped h-cards from other people though
#
aaronpk
yeah same with webmention.io, i have a bunch of photos and comments from people who haven't signed up for the service
#
skippy
Ah, I found http://known.boffosocko.com from the indiweb wiki. thanks!
#
dgold
aaronpk: are you holding that information?
#
snarfed
yes. bridgy is too.
#
aaronpk
yeah since webmention.io has an API for people to query the webmentions
#
dgold
on OYS?
#
snarfed
on wm.io
#
aaronpk
i do store it on OYS because it has to host a web page to send the webmention to your site
#
dgold
if you have an API to download your stuff, you have a data export function
#
aaronpk
but the people who haven't signed up for an account can't use that api

#

thank you so much dgold! we owe you!
#
dgold
aaronpk: you're not charging for oys & wm.io, yes?
#
dgold
you're not advertising based, so you don't derive income from the action of processing the data?
#
snarfed
right afaik, no income
#
dgold
so, i'd argue pretty strongly that you're exempted under a.2(2) `for purely personal or household activity`
#
dgold
REcital 18 clarifies 2(2) with the following:
#
dgold
"This Regulation does not apply to the processing of personal data by a natural person in the course of a purely personal or household activity and thus with no connection to a professional or commercial activity. 2Personal or household activities could include correspondence and the holding of addresses, or social networking and online activity undertaken within the context of such activities. "
#
dgold
`with no connection to a professional or commercial activity`
#
snarfed
yay, yes
#
dgold
I would still advocate to you both that you could 'belt&braces' the whole thing with a strong Data Export Function and an effective Data Deletion/Termination method
#
snarfed
understood
#
snarfed
dgold: any idea where the termination part is? searching https://gdpr-info.eu/ for termination and terminate doesn't find much
#
dgold
snarfed: a.17
#
dgold
and Recital 65
#
dgold
if someone is deleting their account (hey Facebook!) then the presumption is towards deletion of all data

When you look at recital 18 it says: “Personal or household activities could include correspondence and the holding of addresses, or social networking and online activity undertaken within the context of such activities. However, this Regulation applies to controllers or processors which provide the means for processing personal data for such personal or household activities” - would the likes of bridgy and webmention.io be caught here?

[colinwalker]: yes, because there's a corpus of eu law which says that personal activities are activities which are not linked to or associated with the derivation of income of commercial activity

sorry, I mean 'no'

:( the milk things in this motel coffee set are labelled "milk"

[colinwalker]
But isn’t there a distinction here between the personal activity and the additional processing? Personal activity = people’s blogs which can hold data but not comply whereas the processing to pass the data between them is not. Or am I overthinking it?
#
dgold
you're overthinking it a small bit, [colinwalker]
#
dgold
the activity by snarfed, aaronpk &c is the 'personal activity' i'm considering
#
[colinwalker]
Just wanted to be clear
#
dgold
oh, [colinwalker] I sent a reply wm to you yesterday, so I think you did break things

[dgold] yup, looks like it. Fixed it now though.

I just need to find another way to achieve what I wanted.

good question. an indieweb approach might solve this, giving authors an opportunity to signal whether they are up for an open conversation, or not. https://twitter.com/LaloDagach/status/976892290659647488

@Ipstenu
@cleverdevil There are people who don’t actually have other viable, maintainable alternatives in order to communicate with family :/ Which is insane, but April Glaser was right on this one. IndieWeb hasn’t caught up to where it’s doable for everyone.

#
@cleverdevil
@Ipstenu I agree that IndieWeb isn’t there yet, but there are PLENTY of viable alternatives for communication with family. Email. Google / Yahoo Groups. iMessage, Signal, SMS. A whole slew of other apps and services. The problem is friction.

#

tantek, https://indieweb.org/comments#How_to_markup - why all the "u-" instead of "p-"?
#
tantek
cweiske: good FAQ - we should make that clearer
#
cweiske
"The u- prefix on the "comment" property works to get the u-url from inside the h-cite"
#
cweiske
I don't understand that sentence
#
tantek
which part? perhaps we can rewrite it
#
cweiske
http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats2-prefixes says: " "u-*" for URL properties, e.g. "u-url", "u-photo", "u-logo" "
#
Loqi
microformats 2 prefix conventions
#
cweiske
I don't see that the comment is an url
#
tantek
all indieweb comments are urls
#
tantek
permalinks with their own markup etc. per /reply

this is more #indieweb-dev though

@huby RSS still works pretty well for me, but the #IndieWeb movement is working on a lot of interesting alternatives. Here’s a couple of IndieWeb quotes and resources I collected in 2013: https://www.strehle.de/tim/weblog/archives/2013/08/21/1641

Learning about Webmentions (https://indieweb.org/Webmention).. figured out how to add rel="me" links to my site.. but really confused with what's next.. what do I do next so that Webmentions can completely replace the Disqus based commenting for my blog?

@kaushalmodi I know that @_dgoldsmith has gotten Webmention working with Hugo before, presuming that's what you're building on top of. https://chat.indieweb.org/ is also a good place to ask.

@kaushalmodi
@ChrisAldrich @_dgoldsmith That's correct. I am reading through https://ascraeus.org/embracing-the-indieweb/#webmentions, but I still cannot put the pieces together.. "What do I need to bake into my site, so that people can reply without having to write whole reply blog posts?". I'll check out that chat link too. Thanks.

@KartikPrabhu I didn't follow.. what won't work? How do people send 1-2 line comments to other blogs using Webmention?

They write notes. Or you install brid.gy and they tweet

For indieweb-to-indieweb comments, we post a note on our site with some specific microformats ("in-reply-to") then send a webmention to the URL we are replying to.
#
chrisaldrich
kaushalmodi, yes, may folks have brid.gy accounts and connect their social media accounts which brid.gy proxy's webmentions on their behalf.
#
chrisaldrich
s/may/many
#
gRegorLove
Another tool is Bridgy, which serves as a bridge and will send webmentions for replies people post on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, others
#
gRegorLove
kaushalmodi: Do you have a domain set up where you can publish a note?
#
chrisaldrich
I've documented a portion of it for how I set a piece up on my site here: http://boffosocko.com/2017/04/15/mentions-from-twitter-to-my-website/

TIL today... who knew?
#

What is Hugo?
#
Loqi
Hugo is a static site generator written in Go https://indieweb.org/Hugo
#
chrisaldrich
kaushalmodi that should have some additional documentation and examples ^^
#
gRegorLove
Looks like you're using webmention.io. Let me try sending you a webmention. We can confirm it was received at least, then work on how to display them.
#
gRegorLove
Worked! Here's webmention.io's representation of the webmention I sent you: https://webmention.io/api/mentions?target=https://scripter.co/git-diff-minified-js-and-css/
#
gRegorLove
I'm less familiar with displaying webmentions on static sites, but you could use https://indieweb.org/webmention.herokuapp.com

@andrea @Blot__ @kevinmarks @desparoz Hey Andrea. Here’s a whole template for single entries, so you can see it in context (if you need) - https://cl.ly/2d1e091d380M. Are you using http://webmention.io? I don’t think what he wrote for me will work without using that.

@gRegorLove Thanks for the test mention. I already tried that heroku app. but looks like they are already maxed out at 150 users.
#

@chrisaldrich I'll have a look at your blog post, and work in this more tomorrow. thanks everyone.
#
gRegorLove
The jQuery snippet on webmention.io for showing all mentions should work as well
