> How not? http://whisper.sh/privacy , dated 13 October, has the "other countries" clause, and says "Any changes become effective when we post them on the Site."
I don't know, I got my information from this Guardian article:
"These new terms, which were posted on Whisper’s website on 13 October, come into effect on 12 November."
Thanks. I guess this is based on "The new Terms will become effective thirty (30) days after we post the notice on our Site."[0] in the Terms, which also seem to incorporate the Privacy Policy I linked, which is stated to take effect immediately. I don't know which statement about effective date takes precedence (another sign of sketchiness/sloppiness?), but at least I know what you and the Guardian are talking about.
