Shinigami Eyes - Transgender browser extension that turns links red if they're transphobic or some shit (named after anime because anime makes you gay)

[Orange Man Costume]

It's probably been said already, but the super secret list and owner comes off as a extortion grift, he can simply mark random people or companies red, demanding a "donation" in private, or even solicit people to pay for green status.

If someone doesn't pay up, or even blows the whistle, there's plausible deniability, if you can't really confirm if that's truly the extension owner, or link the accusations to changes in the list.

I think the transgender angle is just opportunism, the extension owner realized they could use them as willing & unpaid enforcers, to rattle people who are marked red.

After spending more time on it than I should've I'm fairly convinced it's just a retarded troon thinking it was a good idea, eating too much ritalin without thinking about the consequences.
There's no way to pay that I've found, and because of how the bloom filter works it's hard to guarantee that someone won't get flagged just because they pay.

The way bloom filters works is that you will get a certain percentage of people randomly flagged (both red and green), but everyone that is actually reported is guaranteed to be flagged. So false positives but not false negatives.

It's honestly very surprising the troon suicide rate is only 41% or that there are even any troons left if a single mean comment sends these things into a suicidal death spiral.

Retarded question: What's a bloom filter?

Retarded question: What's a bloom filter?

Imagine if you got 100 people to stamp their fingerprints one on top of the other, and then said "If you scan your fingerprint and there's no part of the print that isn't in this combined image, then you're one of the 100 people".
Clearly there could be a false positive if all the parts of your fingerprint just happen to align with someone else in the sample, but there could never be a false negative because if part of your fingerprint is outside the combined print, you obviously couldn't be one of the people in the sample. The advantage is that you don't actually have to store 100 fingerprint images.

A Bloom filter is like that for data, except what you "stamp" is a series of hash values.

If one faking a suicide is enough to cause a twitter meltdown and a ddos of this place, seven should be enough for twitter to start hounding a company.

I'd congratulate Norway (and EU GDPR) for doing something good for once but it sounds like it got banned just because the tranny developer didn't respond. It's like Alex Jones getting a default judgment for doing the bare minimum to support his case.
In any case Preddit trannies are seething:

Providing the information would have been disclosing that the whole thing was super-illegal under the GDPR from the very beginning, and possibly even criminal.

 

[Kosher Dill]

Pursuant to Article 58(2)(f) GDPR, Datatilsynet hereby imposes a ban on all Shinigami Eyes’
processing activities that occur in the context of providing the browser extension “Shinigami
Eyes”, on Norwegian territory.

Isn't this meaningless then? Is there any reason to think anyone involved with this is from Norway?

No. It actually makes things worse.

The law controls the transfer of personally identifying information. The very tl;dr is that whoever runs the shinigami eyes application server, which the extension speaks to while processing PII, is both a data controller and a data processor under the GDPR. What this means is, they bear a responsibility to both seek permission of data subjects (in this case, Norweigna citizens) to transfer their data into a different jurisdiction, but also must provide a means for those data subjects to access, control, and remove that PII.

Where the problem occurs is that shinigami eyes is transferring and processing PII that is collected when a user tags someone as a transphobic shitlord. It has absolutely no legal justification to obtain that PII, or to transfer it to users of the extension, even in an obfuscated form. The shinigami eyes extension performs data processing on that PII without the permission or even knowledge of the tagged user, by collecting, collating, and then transferring their PII to a controller that provides no means for the information to be removed.

After all the crazy shit we seen this year you are retarded enough to think this is some 4d chess, instead of regular troon lunacy?
Oh boy...

Interestingly enough, Wikipedia articles like the John Money article are labeled red for some reason.

Makes me think.

Does any troon actually use this extension? I'll see it mentioned maybe once a year when digging in my meme folder and remember "Oh yeah, the Schlongstaffel are trying to create a chud registry so they have a list of names to pack in the boxcars" and then I'll blissfully forget and return to my bullshit. How relevant is Shinigamieyes to the current zeitgeist and state of the culture war?

I know quite a few reddit mods still use it.
