He sprays that shit on every morning? Surprised his lungs haven’t given out.

Certainly a possibility. Lots of people really dislike Gizmodo as a news outlet for past controversy.

I don’t think them saying this has much to do with liking Altman. Rather, I think they are raging at Gizmodo (because well, Gizmodo) and also at the headline of an article they didn’t read.

Win a car that may be will be spying on you (don’t worry, no one will ever win the million dollars).

You should probably look up the arrest records of civil rights activists and give a good hard think about whether or not you’re willing to be the problem in order to enact a solution because we will not prevail on this in the long run without taking some blows.

This countries government has already proven time and again that they will literally kill people who have done nothing wrong in order to get what they want.

People really do believe that they can fight fascism by just avoiding anything that might get them in trouble.

So I’m going to point out that people have already been harassed, arrested, injured, and killed by law enforcement for protesting in other ways too in this country and historically that has also happened.

A demonstration of why a law being enacted (that uses freely /publicly available information) should not be considered a form of harassment.

Further, if it is then it can be argued in a court of law that if it counts as harassment then the law shouldn’t enable it to be more effective which is the point.

Calling, emailing, and writing to elected officials isn’t harassment, and explaining the very real dangers of the lack of privacy laws and the results of the lack also isn’t by itself harassment. But if you will avoid a protest because you feel there may be reprisals against you for it then you’re very unlikely to be protesting in the first place. They have already won in this scenario.

I don’t think you understand what I’m suggesting.

Sending someone a “This is publically available information readily available on the internet that can and will be abused by people once this bill goes through in conjunction with the type of data that will be leaked from said data collection for ID efforts and it’s already dangerous now” isn’t the same as sending federal judges anonymous pizza. One is a well understood threat, the other is a demonstration from a constituent reaching out to an elected official.

I’m not saying anonymously threaten them.

Apparently it’s already exposing sensitive user data and can be bypassed.

Start looking up freely available information about them on the internet and sending that to them. At some point they will start to recognize that privacy is important.

Relatable.

Came here to make sure this was here. Thank you. Carry on.

Are the lower prices in the room with us right now?

And did the stores lower their prices?

Last guy who tried that got arrested. Plan accordingly.

I prefer shut up 10++ but any of them that work are good.

That sounds like something MS is too rich to understand.

Doof was helping people get healthy, and using their healthy output so the power they generate didn’t go to waste!

Even Doofenshmirtz wouldn’t stoop so low.

Think about the people you willingly surround yourself with. Then think about how often they agree with the things you think and say.

As the saying goes “I’m sure there’s someone out there who believes the exact opposite of everything I believe, and while I’m sure they aren’t a complete idiot…”

Everyone is susceptible to the feedback loop. Everyone can fall victim to the seduction of an echo chamber. While not everyone would ignore the red flag that this thing is a machine/digital algorithm rather than a person or sentient/sapient being, it’s not really that hard to see how we got here. Echo chambers exist all over the internet. The difference is that most of them have some voices of dissent. The AI LLM doesn’t offer that. They keep trying to add it in but it’s basically antithetical to the design.

When you add that to the fact that making it addictive benefits their bottom line is pretty obvious that they are trying to walk the line between being regulated by the government and making their product as popular as possible.

I don’t think they really knew it would have this exact effect. But I do think they plan to take advantage of it now that they know and I don’t think we humans are all going to be able to fight the temptation of an automated propaganda machine.

This is especially because mental health and healthcare in this country has been failing for decades, and even people who “don’t have mental health problems” aren’t magically mentally healthy, they just don’t know the status of their mental health. A whole lot of people in the US especially are mentally ill or facing neurological medical problems that they don’t know about.

I thought of the one app India was trying to force all phones sold in the country to have. That one was also tracking locations.
