It doesn't matter where the data came from - uploaded, downloaded, generated. If it is PI it is the property of the identified user, not Facebook's. If they slurp 100 images of my face then that data is mine and it is my right to have it deleted and told who they shared it with and for what.

"Israel uses deadly force against civilians [they think might be] engaged in acts of force against Israel" would be closer to the truth. Missiles doesn't check if everyone near are bad guys before exploding.

Not much of a twist really since Germany (the state) owns part of VW and they also want to protect jobs.

I don't know about them all but the games I have bought that use other platforms than Steam I bought on Steam and they got installed with the game (like uplay). I'd say the ship is full of water and being pulled along by Valve's tug.

> iOS than Windows

Unless you mean Windows on a phone that is completely irrelevant. Unless (when) Apple starts putting only iOS on PC's.
