FWIW: I've resorted to using a formula to derive my security question answers from the real answer (kept secret) and the text of the question itself. This seems to help mitigate the damage of the q's and a's getting exposed.
Edit: I say this as someone who greatly values a culture where social identies are self selected (or nor ;-) as well as mutable.
>Since when do search warrants get automatically approved by a black box? It is on the judge to approve, not a machine.
The USA PATRIOT ACT removed judicial oversight and allows for warrants to be issued that notify the judiciary and simultaneously issue gag orders on those notified. For federal cases warrants no longer require judicial approval in an undisclosed number of cases. Try and find a list of current Guantanamo Bay detainees or the judges who approved the warrants used to detain them. Until that’s dealt with I see why King County would ban this use as a defense against automated enforcement.
I'll add that while I think it's unlikely ANY incorporated publicly traded business would stick it out to deal with the consequences... TESLA seems to have treated medium-term unprofitablity as a consequence of failing to meet quality and production goals without heavy divergence from long-term profitability plans.
I assumed that this probably is implemented as a 'non-public' goelocation service api as well raw data sharing agreements in some cases, but I'd doubt the data 'processors' and 'controllers' are known to anyone outside those parties.
But more importantly for the sake of informed discussion, please elaborate?

If you're referring to deliverability of emails in the context of email spam filters then no. Having an unsubscribe option on repeated, unanswered solicitations would be helpful. The emails are not spam, and in the first email chain they are rather straightforward about their proposal and methods. I'm not sure what the scam actually is here.. people offering money for dev to scam users out of bandwidth? I do think it's noble of dev ignore the solicitation and provide exposure to this market however.
I'm neither.
>But to a non-partisan (I'm not American, but deeply concerned by what I can see from my part of the world) it's plain as day.
I am an American, non-partisan, who shares mutual deep concern.
