I love to be able to focus on the design and not the practicalities of selling a hardware product!
- To have a smartphone
- To give out your phone number
- To create an account
The worst? You can't even resale the ticket if the event is not sold out! Usually if I'm unable to attend a concert, I'll put my ticket up for sale for half the price, but with Dice, you just wasted money on empty seats. Great.
For now it has an "adequacy decision"[1] allowing such transfer, but future changes could threaten that, and activist such as Max Schrems would happily (and rightfully) attack this decision if it happened.
Schrems II might be a blessing in disguise for the European hosting/Saas/Cloud industry, we'll see !

EDIT: I might have confused things indeed. If you fret, you should not carry the error. Usually, an practical way to tune two string is to play harmonics and listen to the "beats" between them. That will carry the error. Fretting should work, but in practice does not really because that suppose that your intonation is perfect (ie the fret are perfectly placed), which they usually are not, especially on acoustics with no easy way to set it up.
It is very wide and email address definitely fall within it. Also note IP is personal data, and an identifier like a UUID of the IDFA is personal data. The key point is that it must be related to an identified *or identifiable* data subject, ie even if that information is not enough to identify the person, the fact that it can contribute to it makes it personal data.
Mana is a Melanesian word for some sort of spiritual life force!
Hopefully this will motivate the DPC to be a little more active in the future (nobody likes to be wrong, especially wrong in public).
Some DPA are unwilling to act, the best thing to make them is to file complaint or support organisations that do (see the comment on NOYB). They are bound by laws to act, let's make them !
You can consult the EDPB decision on that matter here: https://edpb.europa.eu/our-work-tools/our-documents/binding-...
EDIT: Max Schrems' reaction (NOYB):
>"We welcome the first decision by the Irish regulator. However, the DPC gets about ten thousand complaints per year since 2018 and this is the first major fine. The DPC also proposed an initial € 50 million fine and was forced by the other European data protection authorities to move towards € 225 million, which is still only 0.08% of the turnover of the Facebook Group. The GDPR foresees fines of up to 4% of the turnover. This shows how the DPC is still extremely dysfunctional."

Though I never had one (they are rare in France), it became sort of a pop culture icon. For me it was through the work of Rebecca Sugar on Adventure Time. I always liked to play silly made up songs, so I made a silly instrument to go along with it!
If you want to listen to a true musician using it, I recommand Hijaq's work on YouTube[1]. He uses many other pocket instruments if that is an interest of yours!
