I agree it’s a complete joke, they demand you pay, then you pay £40 annually to basically click yes on 3 questions saying you are holding consumers personal information correctly with zero verification.
Nice to know you can be targeted based on interests such as “eating disorders”. I wonder if there was any moral juggling when someone implemented that categorisation.
- any other founders?
Ultimately I’m looking to hire the most effective person for that job.
I’ve got my own views on how terrible some HR depts. can be for an initial CV elimination round, esp. when hiring for technical positions.

I.e if I use plaid to link to my Robin Hood account, do you in any way sell/share/use my data apart from allowing me to fund my Robin Hood account?
You can then keep ringing that number without going back through the app. First person you speak to will likely be the first line support and you will need to be transferred to their resolutions team, you only seem to be able to escalate 1 level before being told the decision is final.
I would record everything because you will get given contradictory statements and the transcriptions if you request them are inaccurate.
You can call and that was a faster option for me to get responses.
In their terms and conditions you agree to arbitration. IANAL so I don’t know if this is binding in all jurisdictions. Amusingly(/not depending on your side) there are stories in their forums where a guest has taken the host directly to small claims court.
Seems crazy, I provided video evidence from inside the apartment and outside the apartment after they asked and then they just ignore it as the host doesn’t want to refund.
I booked recently for 35 nights in SF. Around $3.5k booking, turned up, completely unworkable construction noise from next door, to the point you couldn’t hold a conversation. Tried to make it work, didn’t work.
Told the host I needed to cancel, who told me to contact Airbnb about the refund. I speak to Airbnb, they say I will pay for the days I had the keys and get refunded for remainder. Heard nothing from Airbnb for 10 days after, despite prompts.
At this point Airbnb informs me they can’t contact the host. I contact the host, they immediately respond. I have to act as the go between, this lasts for days.
Host had a 30 day cancellation policy. At this point Airbnb tells me that because I didn’t let them know within 24 hours and because of the hosts refund policy. I will get nothing and their decision is final.
They offered a $20 credit against my next booking and wondered why I laughed.
Interesting side note, requested all information including phone calls via Subject access request. They provided inaccurate/bad transcriptions instead of audio recordings.
Now exploring arbitration / legal action. If anyone has resolved a similar situation I’m all ears.
Seems insane to me there is no other option to escalate. Are they assuming people will just drop it at this point?
It’s a lot easier to protest and stop a system being built that will be used for X but also allow Y, than allowing the system for X to be built and used and stop the feature switch for Y being turned on.
I would have dismissed the original comment at one point, but when you have situations like this playing out I think it is fair to give it more thought:
“Police stop people for covering their faces from facial recognition camera then fine man £90 after he protested (2019)”

However potentially smearing faeces over part of your body and sitting with it festering there for 12 hours or until your next shower is completely acceptable.
Vitalik today then used the LP tokens to remove liquidity and sell all of the meme coins on the same decentralised exchanges, crashing the price in the process.
I believe he donated the proceeds plus the remaining meme coins but that should be fact checked. The meme coin financial values are now significantly less because of the large sells by Vitalik.
There isn’t much liquidity available to sell more of them on decentralised exchanges so you would have to sell the remainder on centralised exchanges currently.
They’re crypto based but unfortunately (/s) no token
A lot of the insecure by default functionality and footgun functions have been deprecated or removed in the latest versions.
Most of the modern frameworks e.g Laravel et al also have abstractions that protect you around a lot of the functionality where long hanging vulnerabilities used to lie. It’s rarer to find things like XSS, SQL inj, file inclusion vulns.
Type comparison will still do crazy things if you aren’t strict, but they have introduced typed properties in php 7.4.
A double edged sword is that a lot of modern development relies on package managers like composer, which means you can be exposed to security issues through the sheer number of dependencies pulled in to some of these frameworks.
