Wow guys, thanks a lot for the informative comments! I love how Lemmy isn’t just a minefield of memes and jokes in the comments like Reddit
I wonder if there was anything in the T&Cs that mentioned extrapolation of data leading to identifying genetic relatives and whether their consent was void on this basis. Or whether this could be grounds for interesting lawsuits from nonconsensual relatives being identifiable from the participants’ data.
Luouth@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you ever been to Burning Man or a similar festival type event? Any cool stories?5·25 days agoYeah I’ve been hearing that it kind of repeats itself every few years. I can’t comment on any other year, but witnessing 2005 was an eye opener. I was trying to find an article to link too but only came across one from 2022 that referenced 2005 (and apparently 2002) being exceptionally bad, comparing them to 2022.

But I was at Reading '05 in the UK. The year of the Reading camping riots. It was insane. All out debauched celebration alongside morons being in charge of camping equipment whilst inebriated. This amounted to gas canisters and fireworks placed casually on the tops of campfires, leading to one guy having his balls shredded by shrapnel as he walked too close to one of the pires.
I witnessed a few walking wounded, stumbling to make their way to medical help, dripping with blood, being hindered by the utter chaos that filled the ‘roads’ between campsites. People were clinging to the sides of fire engines as they tried to wade through the drunken zombies, a group pushed an ice cream truck over with the operator still inside and the marshals all got trapped in their crows nests and pelted with all sorts of projectiles (including flaming) whilst people set their tents and remaining equipment on fire below instead of having to clean them up and cart them home.
I’ve never been in a situation like it. Utterly surreal, super scary but also kinda dumb fun at the time when you’re 17… I can remember the festival being quite good before all hell broke loose on the last night!

Totally agree on the harassment angle. That’s where you’ll get the police to listen. Had to take a similar approach with a paranoid schizophrenic neighbour who equally did not take his meds. The harassment angle allowed them to involve other agencies such as mental health and care workers to improve his situation, and in turn, ours.
