Mobile networks really hate Apple's Private Relay: Some folks find iOS privacy feature blocked on their iPhones

AT&T Blocks Private Relay as well

At least in the states, AT&T blocks Private Relay as well. Quite disappointing.

UK has data adequacy issues? Oof, that's too bad! says Isle of Man

So has anyone looked at how GDPR will affect outsourced call centers? Do countries like India and the Phillipines have data adequacy agreements?

Re: Payment, at $0.015/GB

Currently, you can get a WD 1TB Blue at $49.99/USD. So the maths would actually be:

$50 /(1000GB x 0.015 ($/GB)) = 3.33333333 months, currently. In addition, they claim to offer enhancements for sharing "telemetry", which I think they mean as information about the speed of the network.

If the numbers are accurate, this might actually make some sense from a sharing point of view...

Amazon joins with TuneCore for on-demand CD pressing

Maths problem

I think there's a problem with the maths in the article. If the artist gets to keep 40% of the sale price, the hypothetical $9 cd nets the artist approximately $3.60 per disc. If they owe $31.00 for the same, hypothetical disc to be distributed, it's 9 cds that would be the break even point, not 4, unless Amazon is paying a portion of the $31 that is due - which I doubt.
