There are no websites that I visit now that don't have a login that I would still visit if they suddenly started putting up captchas

At what point is this just extortionary cash grab from U.S. tech companies?

Want to fund some expensive grand program? Find a reason to fine U.S. companies.

I doubt how useful it would be as an attack. As a single point of info it tells you next to nothing. As part of a composition of other indicators it would be the weak link in the chain probably just causing noise for the not un-likly scenario where the person you're targeting is using a VPN.

If it was any less specific we'd be talking about a deanonymization attack that outs whether or not a target is still on Earth.

Do you have any sources that you would recommend? So far, you're throwing out "got a source for that?" left and right and when you get a source you've nothing to say.

Just curious if you have knowledge about this subject or if you're just trying to block the conversation from going in directions you don't like

I would say that HTML is a programming language of the Declarative programming language paradigm.

For SQL you are not instructing the computer what to do, you're describing the rules and structure of the result that you want in some coded language such that an execution engine can determine how to deliver the expected result.

For HTML you're not instructing the renderer what to do, you're describing the rules and structure of the result that you want in some coded language such that the rendering engine can determine how to deliver the expected result.

If I'm wrong, I would be very happy to be corrected because I've argued this for a long time with people who don't know what a programming language paradigm is - so I'd like to know if I'm mistaken.

Then is "agents" just non-spooky coded language for "cyborgs"

Who cares what it is called? I care about the capabilities.

In my experience when people say things like this what they're just projecting insecurity

None of this has to do with. AI. At all.

This is politics and policy

Low and behold, no response. Only downvote. Because there doesn't exist a legitimate argument against is, so all that is left is to be mad
