🎧 Webmentions and Privacy (IndieWeb)

Bookmarked An Indieweb Podcast: Episode 4 – Webmentions and Privacy by David ShanskeDavid Shanske (David Shanske)

With the GDPR regulations coming into effect in Europe May 25th, privacy seems to be on everyone’s mind. This week, we tackle what webmentions are, using them for backfeed, and the privacy implications.

This is a useful discussion of webmentions from David Shanske and Chris Aldrich. It will be interesting to see the impact of GDPR on the #IndieWeb and the web as a whole.

I still wonder the next step in regards to webmentions, such as Gen 3 and 4. Is the challenge in regards to the platforms? For example, does WordPress only allow a certain amount of support? I know that Edublogs closes a number of APIs, I am guessing this is probably related.
