"Facebook is not a person. Facebook should not have "rights" nor "political views"."

In the USA, the supreme court has ruled a corporation DOES in fact have rights. Like the lawsuit of advertising medicine that a state banned-- the SC ruled that was infringing the rights of corporations to "express" their speech.

As someone from UK, I find this whole "Corporations have more rights than I do" very disturbing but thats how it is

"Where have I heard about this before? Oh right, months ago by Ed Zitron."

Please dont say that name here, the witch hunters will out with their forks!!

"I'm finding these LLM announcements to be pretty meaningless. They all look the same, with different numbers and graphs, even though the graphs are almost all identical."

How dare you, sir/ma'am! the LLM spent a whole 0.9 tokens creating the numbers and graphs!!

Here in the UK you can buy a normal TV without any tracking. Its expensive (200-250+ pounds vs 120-150 pounds for normal spyware)

But it doesnt matter. Normal people dont care about this shit, only the Hacker News types. My wife put her foot down when I said we should get dumb TV, and we ended up getting a Samsung even though I wanted to avoid Korean companies (as they have worst privacy features), mainly because it was in our budget and available

"Politicians are completely naive in their understand how people works"

Thats the one thing no politician is-- they are succesful because they understand people very well.

They just dont care.

if you read the the fuckign article it explains why. What a whiny comment

Tried to read article-- hundreds of cookie choices all selected by default. literally, "cookie A, shared with 400 partners, cookie b shared with 100" etc etc

And no way to reject all

Noped out of there in seconds.

"Within Microsoft’s cloud and AI sector, monthly AI spending limits have reportedly been slashed from $100,000 per employee to approximately $10,000 in the majority of instances."

And what were they doing with $100,000/month? I'd really like to know.

"Half the employees were laid off and what’s left are tweeting AI fantasies and vibe-coding Temu Cloudflare."

Ouch

Whatever was supposed to happen, no longer happens. The bug or easter egg or whatever has been fixed.

Now it just says: "I can only help with U.S. government services and official information.

If you have a question about a federal benefit, agency, form, or how to use a government website, ask that and I will point you to official sources. "

"why didn't you text your friends to ask them if they remembered those old memes? Why was your first thought to ask a computer rather than a person?"

Ummm, what? So everytime I need info I should text my friends rather than ask a search engine, that was supposedly built to give info?

Are you trying to troll the op?

They did the same thing in India/ There were student protests that were widely covered by Western media (and the students did have a valid concern, I dont want to downplay that)

The problem is when Indian Prime Minister posted a video asking for calm, that was blocked by Meta.

Pushing one side/narrative is something western media companies like BBC and CNN do a lot, and now it seems Meta has joined the party.

Terrible article

"Progressives have, on the whole, abandoned the forum." -- No they haven't. There are plenty of pro-union, left wing messages posted here everyday and often upvoted to top.

And the so called flagged comments he mentions-- they are correct to be flagged. I dont this site to turn into Reddit /r/politics (or indeed any subreddit) where the same messages are posted everyday, so much so I dont know who is a bot. And where only one type of view is allowed, and you get 10,000 downvotes for the smallest disagreement
