Re:EU to move ahead with cultural quotas for streaming services on Wednesday September 05, 2018 @10:30AM (#17918280)
I'd rather EU forces stream providers to have one account valid for the whole of Europe. I'm French, lived 10 years in England and now in Spain, I want one iTunes account to give me access to the full EU library and not needing 3 seperate accounts. Same thing with Netflix and Digital TV. That would also help Europeans understand their neighbours better.

These region-restricted distribution contracts should not exist anymore in Europe. It's from the video tape era, it belongs in a landfill.

I was trying to remember my history lessons that I had growing up in France and for those interested, I find a nice link with lots of PDF for primary school : http://www.academie-en-ligne.fr/Ecole/Ressources.aspx?PREFIX...

Re:Getting Google to ban our entire company on Monday May 21, 2018 @06:47AM (#17117403)
Not up to date on Google Play developer terms but doesn't a customer requesting a refund makes the developer still liable for Google fees ? If so that's a very shitty thing to do to your friend.
You're right for IT positions in Banking in London but for the rest of the country its a different story. Though I remember the big outage due to a botched upgrade of a batch processing software done by a junior developer in India http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/building-...
don't you worry, bojo is on the case right now. The UK will have to accept more visas from India to get a trade deal. Replacing Europeans IT workers who were able to negotiate their salaries with low wage IT workers who can't change jobs at the risk of loosing their visas...
