very interesting thread on data privacy and how much work we've put on users to keep themselves safe https://twitter.com/oluoluoxenfree/status/1221940343022718976

@oluoluoxenfree
@LauraKalbag @naconf Why is the onus put on users to not use certain services? To read reams of Ts & Cs? There are services that have been built to tackle this, such as @ToSDR, but things such as GDPR seem to have shifted rather than eradicated problems (still better tbh). #DataPrivacyDay

jacky I have argued we have made privacy a priviledge and not the default

Want to give a huge shout out to Jared and the name.com for giving me 25 free domains for my students
#
[tantek]
[jgmac1106] “we” didn’t do that. Privacy is inherently more work to code
#
jgmac1106
yes, but it could be the default setting, rather than taking a new user through three or four clicks to make a post private
#
jgmac1106
Known and WP get close on eay privacy, Known probably the easiest, though the password accesss per post level is a nice WP feature
#
jgmac1106
I think I am also talking about all the edtech software where privacy is a legal requirement. The people with the least developed tech skills are often the ones who want to be the most private but we make privacy hard

Hey. First time in the chat. Just set up my site over the weekend. Anyone around that may be able to answer a question about using Brid.gy and Wordpress to retweet something with comment?

#
Bogie1
Thanks! I was just looking at that page.
#
Bogie1
I wasn't sure if, since I've installed the Wordpress plugins recommended by EWC, if any of those provided a field in the post editor where I should include the tweet URL I'm trying to retweet. Or do I need to write the code by hand as in the post editor?
#
Bogie1
Excuse me, I mean as in the example.
#
[snarfed]
ah, sure! i don't know. maybe try #indieweb-wordpress or [dshanske]?
#
Bogie1
Of course. Thanks. Clearly still finding my way around.

meta: This room is ugly to follow in Matrix/Riot, what with all the appservice-irc messages.

meta topics should be discussed in #indieweb-meta

Anyway, I'm experimenting with indieweb, building a site with Hugo and its indigo theme.

I was looking at https://trakt.tv/ the other day and saw that comments have permalinks, but it doesn't look like ratings or watches do. Am I wrong? Do they provide those for pro accounts? Cleverdevil doesn't have links on his watches, so I'm guessing not?
