jm watching as jk, part of the mafia, storms his house and jk being totally confused as to why the man looks so unbothered by it, standing at the top of the stairs with an unfazed expression.

"w-who are you," jk can't help but stutter out with wide eyes.
to his bewilderment, the man doesn't move to sit next to him on the couch. feeling the pressure of the mysterious man's hands on his shoulder,
"congrats on breaking through the door of your own boss, jeon jungkook, code J97."
"so it was always you on the phone?" he manages to croak out.
"you are the mastermind behind all this, giving us all the orders?"
"but what is the point of this mission? why did you order me to storm your own house?" jk wonders quietly, eyes staring straight ahead of him, anywhere but at the gorgeous man who turned out to be his boss.
"i've had my eyes on you for long, jeon," he begins calmly as if he wasn't kissing the soul out of jk just seconds ago.
jk still doesn't get it, though.
"jimin." the man suddenly says.
"excuse me?"
he sighs. "call me jimin from now on. not 'boss'."
he stands up from his seat and struts around jk, halting right behind him to lean down over his shoulder.
"an offer?" jk asks breathily.
"be my right-hand man and you're allowed to call me jimin, allowed to stay with me in this house and allowed to order the others around with me."
jk's eyes widen in disbelief.
"right-hand man?"
"right-hand man, sidekick, partner, call it how-"
he feels jm move in surprise.
"i accept your offer, jimin," jk says, his voice the most confident it had been within that hour.
jm clicks his tongue, though.
"not so fast, sweetheart," he chuckles, making jk turn his face to him with a frown. they're so close again.

Best books I read in 2020
1. Atomic Habits by @JamesClear
“If you show up at the gym 5 days in a row—even for 2 minutes—you're casting votes for your new identity. You’re not worried about getting in shape. Youre focused on becoming the type of person who doesn’t miss workouts”

“Across diverse cultures, a man who lives in the house with another man’s children is about 60 times more likely than the biological father to kill those children.”

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.
In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.
In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.
This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.
In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
The story doesn\u2019t say you were told not to... it says you did so without approval and they tried to obfuscate what you found. Is that true?

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): https://t.co/PHkDcOT1hy
• 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.
