That order is specific to Facebook but, in principle, the same requirement could be applied to other Meta services that don’t adequately protect Europeans’ data over the pond (such as by using zero knowledge architecture end-to-end encryption).

Plus - as if that wasn’t enough - Meta was recently hit with an order to stop sending EU users data to the US for processing and fined almost $1.3BN for breaching the GDPR’s requirements on data exports. And with even harder limits on surveillance ads coming down the pipe in the EU an app that proposes to track everything to maximize its appeal to advertisers will be a tough sell to regional regulators. (Designated gatekeepers must be compliant with the DMA by next spring while so-called very large online platforms need to meet obligations under the DSA by August 25.)Ĭurrently, the adtech giant does not even offer users a general, up-front choice to deny its tracking and profiling, let alone explicitly ask if it can share data on your health conditions so advertisers can try to sell you diet pills or whatever. So there’s even more regional legal uncertainty looming on the horizon for Meta’s people farming business. So Meta would need to ask and obtain specific permission for processing sensitive data like health into.Īdditionally, incoming EU regulations ban use of sensitive data for ads entirely and may require explicit consent for tech giants to combine data for ad profiling (see: the Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act). But, earlier this week, the bloc’s top court piled more regional woe on Meta via a judgement on a German case referral where the Court said this legal basis is not appropriate for running Meta’s behavioral ads either and consent needs to be sought. Under current EU law, sensitive information such as health data also requires an even higher standard of explicit consent to be legally processed in order to be compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation. Meta has since switched to a claim of legitimate interest for this data-for-ads processing. But it does raise questions over whether Threads will be able to launch in the European Union where the legal basis Meta had claimed for processing Facebook users’ personal data (performance of a contract) was found unlawful at the start of this year. Given that Meta, the developer behind the app, the company formerly known as Facebook, makes its money from tracking and profiling web users to sell their attention via its behavioral advertising microtargeting tools this is hardly surprising. Information provided about the app’s privacy via mandatory disclosures required on iOS shows the app may collect highly sensitive information about users in order to profile their digital activity - including health and financial data, precise location, browsing history, contacts, search history and other sensitive information.

I install and run many applications in Sandboxie because when I fresh install my OS I don't need to re-install and configure every app one by one again, typically a very time-consuming job just copy the sandboxie folder and everything is ready instantly with minimal fuss.įor many people Sandboxie is not just a security app, it's also convenience. Sandboxie may not be designed to work as a VM but I'm sure many of use use it that way becasue, in many cases, it works very well. If you want to install software the requires drivers, services and serious OS integration, then that's what you need, along with the OS licenses that go with it, not an isolated, non VM container. It's a valid program, and besides this program needs resourced to sync with your phone. Attempt to install them, then once you're satisfied, Then install them on your host. Installing apps in the SB (which is temp storage and volatile) grew out of that.

with Modern OS (Especially Win 10), and a isolated container situation, apps do not understand that environment If they need access to Windows components. There is nothing to "fix." SBIE isn't a VM. I do not wish to install and leave traces of any programs on my actual machine. From my experience, I have noticed that majority of the program installations do not work in SBie. Nzyme wrote:The whole purpose of having SBie is to test new software (probably suspicious) without installing it on the actual machine.
