He keeps doing it anyway. Then the senate passes the bill destroying the power of the court system and its a moot point.

AI. Probably.

I admit, my skepticism regarding these companies has me leaving a black sticker on my selfie cam for a couple years now.

Books, games, music should be willable, but they are not. That we allowed ourselves to reach this particular spot is just sad.

Isn’t 1/3 of their music fake? How is this surprising?

This is the Peter Thiel world. Trump will die in his sleep of old age and one too many chicken nuggets, and Thiel’s puppet, Vance, will take over.

At which point all privacy will be off the table.

It’s like the goal is to bleed culture from humanity. Corporate is so keep on the $$$ they’re willing to sacrifice culture to it.

I think bots are “good” for making an item appear viral through artificial amplification of visibility. Of note, the headlines in Gaza and Israel pre 2024 election were a deluge. Multiples every day. Post election, that deluge of posts dropped abruptly, to 0-1 a day.

There also needs to be a distinction between passive and active engagement.

It’s like this. Your front door is left open and while, magically, no one can touch or take anything in your house, strangers are allowed to enter at will and eyeball everything, see all your bills, your kids stuff, your laundry, dirty and clean, etc. How would that ever be ok?
