not seeing a lot of comments on the privacy leak of strava in general...

the general public is getting used to having all sorts of PII leaks to "compete" with other folks, get high scores, etc. all sorts of folks we should be worried about getting this: law enforcement, government, insurance companies, stalkers.

CA and CO privacy laws are baby steps in kind of the right direction but the US needs so much more.

does make me wonder if strava is subject to GDPR for EU citizens? i guess they have some form where users give away any rights to their own data?
