Tumblr’s at it again, thanks to the new European Privacy Laws. There’s probably nobody who will read this, but it pissed me off so much that I decided to make a post about it. (Ignore the weird language mish-mash, depending on your country the language might differ.)
OK, so many of us get this screen when we try to access our dash:
Realise how the ‘OK’ button is a nice, attention-grabbing blue? If you’re like me, you’re not exactly into reading a 100 pages document and tend to just click it.
My tip? DONT. Instead click on ‘Manage Options’ right next to it:
Now you’ll see this page:
Still pretty harmless, right? That ‘Accept’ button is looking really attractive right now. Instead, click on Verwalten (Probably something like ‘Manage Options’ or something in english) and you’ll get to this page:
Now that’s not too bad, right? I just switched all the buttons to ‘off’, because I’m jealously guarding my personal information and don’t want Tumblr to go off and do who knows what with it. Looks like we’re done! But wait: There’s a SHOW option.
When we click on that one, what we will get is this:
A HUGE list with OVER 300 ENTRIES of companies that can use your data by default if you’d just clicked ‘OK’ on that very first page. Coincidence that this list is hidden that much? Me thinks not. They’re all switched on by default, but I am still a petty bitch that doesn’t want to give out her data, so I switched them all off. All 300+ of them. There is no option to switch them all off at once, and even if you disable all the options above, the companies are still switched on.
(If you wonder how i got that number, I copied the list into excel and looked at the cell number. No way am I actually counting all those entries)

snowfall
Snowy Saturday over here.
We don’t have to go anywhere, do anything – what’s that? You do want to do something? Well, what is it?
…can’t tell me, huh? That’s alright. We can just watch the snow.
I like how it falls. How each flake gently drops from the sky, so easily, so naturally. Each one fading away as it comes to rest on the ground, blending in with all the others.
Each one is like a thought. And as it falls, it gets more and more difficult to keep track of, floating, fading, and eventually melting away.
Hm? You’re starting to feel sleepy all of a sudden? That’s alright. Just keep watching the snow fall, and I’ll watch you drop down right along with it.
I’ll keep you safe. I’ll keep you warm. I’ll keep you satisfied.
You just keep watching the snow.
