Curious, what distros where affected by npm supply chain attacks?

So in France you will not be able to send your friend gibberish text that only you and your friend understand. Will they also ban the ability to make new languages that only you and your friends understand. Will they also ban whispering?

I like that analogy. It reminds me of "Pointing to the moon and looking at my finger"

That would be possible if LLMs can come up with entirely new words and languages, which I doubt.

Groups in messaging apps rarely contain more than 100 users. So invite codes can work well for messaging apps.

Humans already subjugate other humans and animals to so much pain and suffering, why would they care about AI?

I don't think pain can be felt without the ability to have emotions, and no emotions are possible without personality (that "I" feeling), until AIs can feel real emotions and have a personality than they won't ever be able feel pain.

I don't think one thing will solve it, but everyone who knows better can contribute in their own. For example by teaching people about privacy, encryption and free software. Writing books, doing podcasts aimed at the general public to promote privacy tech. Talking to your local government and municipalities, become the local expert and proposing policies.

Why are we giving up. Shouldn't we stand up against Oppressive governments and Corporations.
