The Mystery of Dholavira
#Thread
A lot remains untold about Dholavira, 5000 years old city..Remarkably well planned with spacious dwelling and sophisticated water harvesting system. Our Ancients were well capable of planning the city with great amenities

The studies further show that the city was divided into 3 parts and each part had an underground water tank which further connected to the water channels. And this was the only reason why Dholavirians not only thrived but harvested
Trade flourished during Dholavirian times and they were experts terracotta pottery, beads, gold and copper ornaments, animal figurines, tools, urns, and vessels. The most interesting aspect of Dholavira is the inscriptions, mainly, ten large signs that are the
the first ever evidence of a written Signboard. The mystery of the oldest Signboard in the world or what it suggests still remains unsolved. But despite having such brilliant techniques the city also faced its collapse. Some theories suggest that it was due to climate change
caused by tectonic movements that destroyed this beautiful town.

Did the place turn dryer day by day and the residents were left with no other choice than to move??

Where did those Dholavirians move into...
A question that remains unanswered. Sadly our tourism is so badly sold or explored

Recently, the @CNIL issued a decision regarding the GDPR compliance of an unknown French adtech company named "Vectaury". It may seem like small fry, but the decision has potential wide-ranging impacts for Google, the IAB framework, and today's adtech. It's thread time! 👇

It's all in French, but if you're up for it you can read:
• Their blog post (lacks the most interesting details):

• Their high-level legal decision: https://t.co/hwpiEvjodt
• The full notification: https://t.co/QQB7rfynha

I've read it so you needn't!

Vectaury was collecting geolocation data in order to create profiles (eg. people who often go to this or that type of shop) so as to power ad targeting. They operate through embedded SDKs and ad bidding, making them invisible to users.

The @CNIL notes that profiling based off of geolocation presents particular risks since it reveals people's movements and habits. As risky, the processing requires consent — this will be the heart of their assessment.

Interesting point: they justify the decision in part because of how many people COULD be targeted in this way (rather than how many have — though they note that too). Because it's on a phone, and many have phones, it is considered large-scale processing no matter what.
