Also https://fakenous.net/ looks like someone's installing a new Wordpress. I've seen this situation before and was able to literally install Wordpress on someone's server.

Onionland people had plenty of warning though. My old v2 Onion bookmarks are all discarded. The new V3 addresses are a good indicator of which .onion operators are serious and want to stay online no matter what.

I don't have issues with AI being used by benevolent people for benevolent purposes. It's when this stuff falls into the wrong hands that would bother me.
This is the only reason AI hasn't exploded yet (we know we're playing with fire with AI). It's called our 'final invention' for a reason.

> I'd also really like to see Apple come clean about the iCloud backup encryption debacle

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple-fbi-icloud-exclusiv...
It's why I only use my Apple ID for grabbing apps from the app store. I have disabled all the `cloud storage` features of iCloud. iCloud is a privacy nightmare.

> this is a very long and weird sentence
Looks programmatically generated. The whole account is the same style of incoherent nonsense. Probably powered by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPT-3
There's a few other accounts I've seen here on HN that just spout random incoherent nonsense text, presumably to accumulate karma so they can power their sockpuppet ring and upvote any story they wish to the frontpage of HN.

> It could be Equifax levels of problematic if there would be a intrusion
I'm sure they're not as lax as Equifax. I would hope that Stripe compartment all these documents so that a compromise of one database is not a compromise of the whole database. That's basic data storage hygiene in the information age. `Don't put all your eggs in one basket` as the saying goes.
