>How on earth they expect to weasel around the law with this ham-fisted approach is beyond me.

They reckon, perhaps correctly, that almost all websites weasel around the law and only very few of them will ever be fined.

Privacy activists will go after the big fish first and there will be time for the small sites to correct course once it becomes clear what is and isn't permitted.



imgur is a big fish though.

due to this assholeness, i null routed them at router level in my house, and at my work.

fuck imgur.
