It’s been a long time coming, but the trust in Firefox and its mother organization, Mozilla, seems to be mostly gone, after a recent commit on the source code removed the “we don’t sell your data” promise, along with a change of Privacy notice and Terms of Use.

Our artificially intelligent future, which is rapidly arriving, is none of these conscious robots with lethal ambition. Our AI future is much more mundane and much more insidious.

This should not be a surprise. Hints of this future were predicted very early in the day. In 1909, for example, in a short story titled The Machine Stops, the great EM Forster painted a prophetic picture of our digital future. The story gets a lot right. It predicts globalisation, the internet, videoconferencing and many other aspects of our current digital reality, from more than a century ago. It is a haunting tale of a high-tech haven that hurtles towards a horrifying bloody halt. Without noticing, humans in the story become so dependent on the technology mediating their society that society itself breaks when the machines do.

Before the Oscars are handed out early March, the Motion Picture Association (MPA) has announced its own annual awards.

Perhaps not coincidentally, those lawmakers could help to push a pirate site blocking bill over the line.

WTF!
