Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You're both getting side-tracked by this discussion of recording. The recording is likely legal in most places.
It's the processing of that unstructured data to extract and store personal information that is problematic. At that point you go from simply recording a conversation of which you are a part, to processing and storing people's personal data without their knowledge, consent, or expectation.
This was my main thrust.
True.
Although in Germany for example it can also be an issue when recording. If you have a security camera pointed at a public space (that can include the sidewalk infront of your house), passersby can sue you to take it down and potentially get you fined. Even pretending to constantly record such an area can yield that result.
I'm not a lawyer but I suppose it would depend on the ToS and if the user agrees to the recording and processing. But if it allows the extraction of the real identity of the user it's probably a GDPR issue.
@kattfisk That seems to imply that you cannot personally listen to or watch recordings that you have made in public. In doing so, you are abstracting personal details that you might have missed before, refreshing your memory, and so on. What is the material difference between you doing this without machine help versus with automation that makes it ethically problematic? What if a friend helped you, not a machine?
Object permanence, perfect recall, data security and consent. It's the difference between seeing someone naked vs taking a picture of someone naked.
Regardless - users, streamers, and developers are all prohibited from scraping and storing the Twitch chat.
