[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Adrian: I prefer to force mandatory awareness of policy. 
Everything else just favours one point of view over another.

Append to note well process/acknowledgment. Do not preset any of 
the choices but only allow proceeding after selection. Include
both selection/acknowledgments for policies taking policies as
well as acknowledging/making choices how one wants to be treated.

Maybe not even limit this to the photography question. Maybe also
add acknowledging a statement about inclusion/harrassment/etc.
How many newcomers for example know about the ombutsteam ?

     [ ] I understand i can contact <ombutsteam-email> confidentially
         raise issues including intimidation, harressment etc. pp


Cheers

Worse, it stigmatises the person who does not want to be photographed by making them where a token of that fact (the reverse is easily masked by "Oh, I forgot to opt in."
