Europeans to miss certain privacy holes in iOS 26 features thanks to strict EU regulations

FTFY

I cannot read the article, but a part of me wishes that the USA forces Europe to become more indipendent.

Huawei was cut off with all the tariffs and was hit hard, but now they came back stronger than before, and this time around USA cannot hit them anymore:

Also I drive a van and I think it’s cool since obviously I’m cool and so my car kinda has to be, too, so I’m not sure if I agree with your first point

sorry, my mistakes. Vans can be absolutely cool. I think the electric one from VW is extremely cool. It's just not the kind of cool that people with fragile masculinity would desire

In Copenhagen, meteorologists predict the city will receive 30% more rainfall by the end of this century.

Oh shit

EuroNCAP suggested to try to change something, apparently they are not catching in their test, but they acknowledge the issue

https://etsc.eu/calls-grow-to-address-safety-risks-of-large-vehicles-in-urban-areas/

Euro NCAP calls upon the vehicle industry to improve the vehicle crash compatibility of future models and not to accept settling for the status quo. It believes Mobile Progressive Deformable Barrier testing can help manufacturers engineer their cars and vans to better protect occupants in the event of a head-on collision

But is it an unethical car? It fits a lot of stuff or a lot of people or a fair amount of both, but I guess the same thing is true for the f150. Visibility is much better I guess, but would pick ups be more moral if they had a lower hood?

some thoughts about your post

• nobody would buy a van if not in need, because it's not cool, it costs more etc. So you would end up having less big vehicles on the road. There is no need to regulate too much something that is numerically not important

• the hood height for the van is lower and visibility is better: you can find a lot of studies that connect the former with less killings and less serious injuries and the latter with less collisions, so definitely less dangerous

• i actually think that if pickups had lower hoods, they would be more moral, yes, because they would be less dangerous. (see above)

Slow down your love: this is just a proposal from a bunch of associations. On the other side there are car industry lobbies and their enormous profit margins, which are particularly strong. Let's see what happens

I think I'm on the right side of history

Do you?

I had lobbyists from car companies threaten me in my own office.

Ok thos is the proof. If oil and car lobbyist are angry at you then you definitely are on the right path!

I "love" how we need to keep on studying things that are flat out good for society while bad things just get rolled out without the same onus of proof.

Things that need to be proven over and over and over:

- Universal Basic Income

- Walkable cities prioritising pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit

- Low speed limits for cars

- No-strings housing for homeless

- High taxes for the rich

And the list goes on and on... why do we make it so hard to improve our society while making it so easy to ruin it?
