A colleague came to me ranting about some feature marketing wants.
"Save whether the user accepted, rejected or ignored the TOS." They have to accept the privacy agreement first, so this feature is most likely about annoying users who rejected the TOS. Totally justified. Fuck that marketing team.

How can a user reject the TOS and still use the software ? If someone refuses them, you shouldn't even have been able to collect anything on him at this point

@hippolyte They can't, but (If I understood correctly) they have to accept the privacy terms in an earlier step

Lalalalalalallalalaalala.

This sounds pretty dumb and dangerous, but that's just my opinion.

@IntrusionCM Who cares. Just add "lost braincells" to their invoice

@Awlex nah. It goes into the excel sheet of "unnecessary costs"…

Probably under the section for internal features without value, with an notice next to it: most likely legalese issue, which shouldn't be solved this way.

:)

Always interesting how many more devs we could have if we wouldn't throw away resources.

My condolences, marketing are mostly untrained toddlers.

@IntrusionCM marketing are about 50% untrained toddlers and 50% con men. But beware the toddlers, they might be con men in disguise.

I think it's a good time to consider learning digital literacy yourself. It's a very useful thing. I already know for sure that this article https://leadpanda.media/ru/blog/... has helped me a lot in getting a good start with earning a reliable income online. Because I didn't trust it before and luckily I was lucky enough to find all the information I needed here and now it's my main income.
