It's fascinating how people know that these devices break their privacy, yet they keep using them.

Supreme Court allows White House to fight social media misinformation
Obviously whoever is going to make the decision on what is "misinformation" and what's not, has always been right... and can never, ever, ever have ulterior motives.
All good. Nothing to see here.

Consumers are paying more than ever for streaming TV each month and analysts say there’s no reason for the companies to stop raising prices
Weird... why is piracy growing then? Every reasonable person should pay $300 to watch the shows they want on the weekend... and then pay a couple more hundreds in the theater.

There once was a programmer
If you're doing something extremely skillfully, chat gpt will make the dumbest suggestions ever...
Chatgpt is good for learning ideas and new things as an aggregate of what everyone thinks about it. But as a coding tool it cannot reason properly and has rubber stamp solutions for everything.

It's open source and it's free. You're free to pay too if you want to support them. Software costs money.
What Louis is protecting against in his license is repurposing the app with malware and ads like was repeatedly done with new pipe. Pick your poison.

Yep... it surprises me that people still think that the internet has principles or cares. Haven't we seen how weak people are for reddit already?

It's a lie. 500 people didn't die because of that. Propaganda.

Encryption doesn't protect you from being identified. Encryption prevents eavesdropping unto the connection from a third party. DMCA lawyers don't need to do that to identify you as a seeder. All they need to do is request the content from you, watch you send to them, and make a record of your ip address.
The blacklist, maybe protects you. No idea. Though it can easily be circumvented by a motivated group.

Well, I don't think you can use written laws to fight human plans to centralize power. I guess our current system is proof of that. People will always find a way to centralize that power to benefit themselves and their groups.
But anyway. I guess we're getting into a dead end. This is becoming opinion stuff at this point, whether this will work. I'll have to think more about this stuff.
