I appreciate the “fuck America swinging their dicks around in other’s business” sentiment, but let’s not entertain conspiracy where there isn’t any. America doesn’t need to push its preferences in places where the sentiment already aligns.

My post is that you you blame this on America you won’t think clearly about the actual issue, which is the sentiment of EU politicians and businesses and how they skew unduly in favor of harsh intellectual property restrictions.

Are we just Curtis Yarvin-posting now?

Many people in the US thought “He won’t”

So, call your representatives.

Would container ships be a good application? Or too heavy/large?

Not sure if downvotes because people missed the reference or they really don’t like Family Guy for some reason

Yes. Exactly this. No way for a bot to make an API call to a LLM and get back a solution formatted in JSON that it could easily parse for the solution. Could never happen.

WireGuard would be illegal. ISPs would monitor for encrypted traffic streams. All remote workers must now come back to the office. ofcom can see any and all traffic. Your loyalty to the king shall be examined. You choices of media will be scrutinized. The threat of losing your children will be used to force compliance. Welcome to the machine.

Didn’t we carve Mt Rushmore into a scared Native American site as like a huge “fuck you” to them?

America is such a goddamn scourge.

This has been the case for 40+ years. Humans are almost always the weakest link.

I think that’s less about “hacking” and more about modern day devs being overworked by their hot-shit team lead and clueless PMs and creating “temporary” solutions that become permanent in the long run.

This bucket was probably something they set up early in the dev cycle so they could iterate components without needing to implement an auth system first and then got rushed into releasing before it could be fixed. That’s almost always how this stuff happens; whether it’s a core element or a rushed DR test.

Nah they came back online after like 2 weeks I think?

Now now, I like to shit on vibecoders too but let’s not pretend this is some new problem.

Idiots leave databases on cloud servers exposed all the time rather than deal with their companies often arcane rules for generating certificates

Well UK, have the day you voted for I guess

Must be a recent policy change; the account is 1 day old

This is literally why crypto was invented, as another user put it, “before crypto bros turned it into a pump n dump scheme”

Also it was a bat not a dove, Ozzy himself said so in interviews. He said he thought it was a fake rubber toy and only realized it was real after he’d done it

I dunno they seem to have weaponized “woke” so that black people can’t compliment constructive viewpoints on ending systemic racism so

Yeah, it kinda can

At first, they did not regroup, they just started attacking this guy.

Eventually, they did get their shit together and they HAVE REACHED enough signatures.

So now that they are winning, why does PS matter at all anymore? Why has this annoyance turned into an online crusade that I have to constantly hear about? I do not give a shit about these gripes with this guy, and considering that he was ultimately irrelevant to SKG, I’m not sure why they care so much either

I’ve made some comments critical of how relentlessly PirateSoftware is being harassed and how annoying it is and how distracting from the actual movement it is.

Nothing wrong with the petition itself, and I haven’t noticed any negative astroturfing about it.

Why does every rebuttal have to strawman me saying “Apple is perfect and get it right every time”?

I’m offering nothing more than an explanation of how they try to operate. I’m not defending them, or saying they never miss.
