in a typical reddit fashion the post is getting downvotes despite just asking the obvious question.

i have a reading account for when i need to read reddit via logged-in account, so i went and asked.

ETA-1: and got banned for asking.

ETA-2: the subreddit's description still has “sub moved to https://awful.systems” in the old view.

how does allowing the ai companies to ignore copyright improve the situation, pray tell?

for me the wat was triggered by “unsolicited advice”; if it was my reply that was reported, i wasn't giving advice, i was setting boundaries.

my condolences.

and, no matter how much this has helped you to cope with your personal trauma, going through that trauma does not entitle you to use emotional blackmail to silence people who do not subscribe to the llm hype.

are you one of these fuckers who suggest that “red” states' citizens deserve all that happens to them without realising how gerrymandered are the voting districts, and that the “red” states are not really red?

such an excellent nazi bar they have there.

yup.

also: it was microsoft's business decision to make the api required for av (or, more general security subsystems) to function so low-level that it has to be delivered as a kernel driver and operate in ring0. i guess it's primarily for the performance reasons, but still, there are other technical options. someone made the executive decision there.

on the other hand, it was crowdstrike's business decision to make the bloody update parser run in ring0, and without verification that the update data is correct, nobody forced them to do it that way.

let them both burn.

again, there's no need to defend microsoft: microsoft could do the right thing and not try to use the situation in an attempt to undermine eu antitrust policies using a bullshit take.
