Hommage à Marcel Marceau [b. 1923 - d. 2007]
Predictable news via ZDNet's David Meyer, of the big tech players (Google, Facebook) fall from privacy-grace has appeared, with word of Apple, Amazon and let's not forget LinkedIn added to the privacy-perp-walk now de rigueur on sur lé continent. Certainement le jour doit lire!
