You can ask for an invoice. O wait companies in North America cannot make proper incoices for some weird fucking reason.
It should just all be included in the price (excluding shipping and the fee when paying with a creditcard or paypal instead of a bankcard) and people should make more trouble out of them not doing that.
A CPA is required to higher other professionals when their knowledge doesnt reach to the subject in question, so yeah they would get a security or privacy specialist to help them. The upside of using a CPA is that they would look at the entire process. The rapport of a CPA is going to be a lot more expensive though.
In the US people defend that companies don’t publish their annual reports, plus some people also defend these companies regardless of what they do. It’s almost religion. But if you would require companies to at least publish some figures and require bigger companies to have a statement signet by a CPA then more of these companies would have issues. Since a CPA can generally get in a lot of trouble if they mess up (at least here in NL)
They don’t need to be hostile audit’s, heck that’s probably the worst way of doing it. Work together with the company and help them to pass the audit and they will be more transparent .
Not American, so idk what I am speedrunning. Maybe I can finally post a time on speedrun.com
People should vaccinate and daycares should have the option to ban kids. Yes it can then transfer at school, but there is no good alternative for that.
Iirc Proton has been audited for security and for privacy as well.
We have systems in place to help with it
There should be a difference between using Whatsapp while in a county with good privacy laws (like one of the EU member) or one without.
As far as I know Meta only collects and abuses data it get’s from people where there are now laws in place to prevent it (so why wouldn’t they do it).
We should normalise the audits on security and privacy that are done by proper accountants. It doesn’t help that a lot of people call bookkeepers accountants which isn’t correct, but a signature from an accountant (CPA/AA/RA or whatever) should have some impact to prove the services are secure or private.
“Estimated taxes” what is that for bullshit? You can just calculate how much the tax should be.
I know it’s not how it works in the US, but if they advertise it for 13$ they should sell it for 13$ including tax.
Yeah CEO’s and shareholders are driving it to the extreme, but in the end everybody wants their interest on savings/investments, their yearly wage increases etc. The whole economic system is at fault and America is driving it to the extreme.
But you should first try to reuse something bedore you start to repurpose (or reuse it). If it can’t be repaired or it isn’t viable enough (because nobody want’s it or nobbody wants to pay for the repair) then reuse it
No it’s not, the full ladder is basically (and even legally here in NL rvo.nl )
But the saying is often used as “Repair, Reuse, Recycle” in the right to repair programs.
Isn’t the recommended amount a lot lower than 6-8 ounces? It’s like 500g or 5 ounces per week.
They should show me the invoice, but North American companies generally fuck that up as well
