Brazilian here. While at first I was a bit “huh?” at your mention of Brazil because we are not being censored at this level, I get the point and am not that surprised.

Jair Messias Bolsonaro and his family might be some of the most perverse and incompetent people I ever saw in a position of power. They do stuff like…

Theres nothing illegal about being pregnant.

Are you being intentionally obtuse or...?

That’s my point. It doesn’t cover the data brokers. But it does cover some of the people the data brokers buy the data from.

None of the data in this story is from a HIPAA covered entity -- Google Maps can tell anyone they want about your visit to a medical building. HIPAA doesn't apply here. GDPR would, if we were in Europe. 

As noted elsewhere, this is excellent, EXCELLENT long-form information, Ms. Wodinsky and Mr. Barr.

This is good Giz, like the old days.

HIPAA will protect people a little bit, but not much.

I think that was a Black Dragon, they breath streams of acid.  They’re one of the more common types of chromatic dragons that adventurers would encounter.

Yeah, the fact that the reaction to “Oops, the heroes accidentally helped the BBEG get the thingy needed to conquer the world and now have to try to find an undo button” being the purported plot is “...yeah, that sounds like a D&D campaign” from most fans really does tell me they know what they’re doing.

I think its just a lack of exposure to other games.  A lot of new players get their D&D books at a big box store or on Amazon and play with people they know and never set foot into a game store.  I find it kinda fun to take a new D&D player to one and show them the even greater world that is out there to explore.  Not…

I saw a tweet that said the new movie should stop in the middle and make everyone in the theater schedule a time to finish it.

And still set the trap off in the end

It was enjoying a rise in popularity before Stranger Things. I’ll concede that ST rocketed its recent visibility but the rise in nerd culture generally over the last few decades is more responsible than some Netflix show.

Also, having a Dragon in a movie that DOESN’T breath fire.

I’m just glad it didn’t stand up on long spindly legs

A true D&D movie should make all the protagonists as murder hobos who do nothing but barter at the local shop for 30 minutes to get the nice sword cheaper by 100 gold.

To your point, I’m pretty sure your average D&D campaign would make for an awful movie. The idea that LOTR is somehow a D&D substitute completely ignores how much D&D has diverged from it since its inception - like yeah, they both have elves, dwarves, etc. but D&D goes quickly off the rails from there by comparison.…

But how much can we forgive for the appearance of the Mimic?

If your family really loved you they wouldn't make you be on Instagram.
