Queer guy , here to talk and express
They prepared a list of software that need mandatory audit , like browsers and all !
Coz what ? GDPR? If they have good intentions they need to see the web integrity api !
Basically A foss product is not exempted if an employee ( does not need to be a tech employee) contributes to a foss prod , or if a company donates to them ! So even npm packages by individual coders who are employed say.by dominos need to take audit and deliver vulnerability free code .
Just read the act then ! It keeps it vague enough to consider a person working in free time will be considered a commercial product
Please watch the video above !
Well if i am developing a product and I work for a corp or if my project is getting donation from a corp , it will be considered as a commerical project , it does not need me to be working on that product as part of my work !!
Not really most apps I have on my phone are now fdroid apps !
They consider foss products out of this requirement , only when the contributors are volunteers who are not working or are employed by a company !! Or get a corporate donation, if even one person contributing to the project is a corporate employee they need to go with the crazy rules they have laid !!
https://youtu.be/iUgAS1luxEQ a video here !
Well the attemps they made are more like drop in the ocean ! I still dont understand how FOSS in eu at least will survive this disaster , while most corps , just use foss software anyway will flourish !
I wonder if I am developing an app for lemmy and I am based in EU , am I obligated to get an external vulnerability audit done , or pay a 15.million euro fine , since I am working for a corporate with a full time job?
I generally take a pull from their git and build it on my machines so yeah !
There is a telegram pwa i think but i use the open source app for that !
Also its breaking sites left , right and center ! Things load on ff much better
Weird , I have been using ff , twitter pwa for years and notifs work for me , although i voluntarily disabled notifs now !
I think its bit late for awareness campaigns now , google will eventually bring the web integrity api , I am very scared about if we will even be able to use new OSes , but i guess a new web with less dependancy may develop !
Did they change stuff ? I was running an instance on my home server , but the server ceashed and didnt get time to reinstate it !
I have been using fennec and yeah the load is slow only when i have all the extentions enabled but overall a great browser
The law also keeps it vague enough , that it says employed individual , so they could be waiting tables and this will still apply !!
