The FTC goes after GoodRx for sharing users’ health data with Meta and Google – Vox

GoodRx has not been very good at your privacy. And now the Federal Trade Commission has written an expensive prescription: a hefty fine and an agreement to implement various privacy protections.

If you’re one of the tens of millions of people who used GoodRx to find bargains on your medications, the drug discount and price-shopping website and app might have done a little more than you bargained for: It sent your sensitive health data to data brokers as well as tech companies like Meta and Google to use for advertising, according to the FTC.

The FTC announced on Wednesday that GoodRx has agreed to pay a $1.5 million fine and take various steps to ensure that it no longer shares health data for advertising purposes, that it obtains user consent to share health data for other reasons, and that it makes an effort to get the third parties with whom it previously shared data to delete that data.

Es una margarita, un tulipán, un pedazo de cielo

La sencillez es una margarita, un girasol, una orquídea, un tulipán, que florece con el encanto, los detalles y el regalo de sus colores, su textura y su perfume, como si trajera consigo un pedazo de cielo, un fragmento del paraíso, capaz de destronar el imperio de la arrogancia y de las superficialidades. Es el agua cristalina que da de beber a todos, al natural, sin alterar ni presumir colores ni sabores artificiales. La sencillez se expresa en las almas nobles y pertenece a seres grandiosos.

“It depends on us”: Jamaica poised to join Caribbean Women in Leadership

Petchary's Blog

It will be a new chapter. All the women who joined a recent planning meeting in a Kingston hotel recently agreed. The meeting was convened by Una May Gordon, who as former Principal Director of the Climate Change Division was full of an energy and drive that I greatly admired. Those qualities are still there in abundance, and in Una May’s empowering smile, accompanied by a slightly stern style of delivery. The group consisted of several women politicians from both sides of the fence (including Senator Kamina Johnson Smith, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Donna Scott-Mottley, Opposition Spokesperson on Justice, among others), as well as members of civil society. Unfortunately, I did not take photographs.

What was the planning for? To establish a Jamaican Chapter of the Trinidad-basedCaribbean Women in Leadership (CWiL). CWiL describes itself as “a non-partisan and independent, flagship networking organization committed to advancing women’s transformational leadership…

Il nostro sistema solare e la volta celeste

le pagine dei nostri libri

ll nostro Sistema Solare è nato quattro miliardi e mezzo di anni fa da una nube di gas e polveri in rotazione e si estende per oltre sei miliardi di chilometri. È formato dal Sole, che è una stella, e dai corpi che gravitano attorno a esso: i pianeti Mercurio, Venere, Terra, Marte, Giove, Saturno, Urano, Nettuno, i pianeti nani come Plutone, i loro satelliti, gli asteroidi e le comete.

Le comete quindi non sono stelle ma enormiblocchi di ghiaccio e polveriche provengono dalla Nube di Oort, ai confini del Sistema Solare, e viaggiando nello spazio, ogni tanto passano davanti al Sole. Quando questo accade il materiale di cui sono fatteevaporae diventano visibili nel cielo.

Il sistema solare fa parte dellaGalassia Via Lattea, che annovera circa3-400 miliardi di stelle, che si chiama così perché nel cielo se ne può vedere una parte che appare come una scia luminosache sembra…
