Show HN: A social platform to record and debate predictions of the future

Interesting, but there is no legal disclaimer, about page, corporation, cookie usage information, etc

Does that mean you don't log in anyway any information about visitor, and that you share all gathered information by contributors with the public ? For example, where can I download the whole database of prediction, with votes, comments and history ?

If I can't, I'm assuming this is not fully public and you potentially use my data as a visitor and/or contributor to make money, and you therefore need a legal entity to represent the website.

C'mon, it's a side project. Let the person develop some functionality before expecting him to add all this useless legal mumbo-jumbo.

Sorry, but I care about my rights, even if you are only experimenting ideas.

It isn’t your “right” to demand that he follows your countries local laws, especially if he isn’t from your country.

He is well within his right to make the website exactly how it is, and you are well within your rights not to visit it.

True, and I made my decision. I only wanted to warn about it to other people who might browse here. The intent of the website is not clear.

do they need a legal entity to profit off your data if you are willingly giving it up to them, unaware of what they'll do with it?
