@simon On devices that will let it, it’ll save anything in your clipboard, even if you don’t paste into the app.It also saves keystrokes, even when not submitted and even in its (non-optional) in-app browser.There’s also the fact the CCP can request any data the company holds, on anyone, for any reason and regardless of where the data is stored (ie their US and EU data centres are smokescreens).

@simon @monkeyninja Yup, this is pretty good. The second point is really important.

@simon @monkeyninja Yup. But Uber is an American company we can do something about. ByteDance is subservient to a hostile state. That’s what most of this boils down to.

@simon Jeez, if I bought a golden toilet, there’s no way I’d use it for my next bowel movement. I’d keep it for special. Perhaps the morning after a 100-course meal.

@simon Yah. They did say that in their press release announcing Bard.If this is eventually supposed to replace traditional Google search, it’s gotta be cheap. Google has spent decades making search queries as cheap as they possibly can.

@simon I don’t like that analogy at all. A calculator shows its work and always produces the same answer for the same input.ChatGPT does neither of these things.

@trwnh @paul Yes they can. They report you to your school’s monitors with the threat that the school will be kicked out of the derby if it doesn’t fall in line.

@trwnh So you want to completely fragment the Fediverse? I mean, more than it already is? Ridiculous.

@trwnh Bollocks. What’s the point of federation if all you end up with is lots of little walled gardens?

@trwnh Right, but the extreme level of censorship does effectively lead to walled gardens. That’s my point.I’ve been threatened by @medium for this very reason.
