yeah brave always felt gross and i remember them doing shady crap for years.

im not aware of proton changing terms, but their CEO announced he has trump’s dick down his throat. well, as far as it’ll reach. between his lips, at least. so they can’t really be trusted to not snitch at this point.

the only one of these that surprised me at all was firefox going to shit, and that started months ago with a smaller thing.

and does that word mean anything in this context?

fascists really love LLM’s. like ridiculously in love with them. it’s where all their ‘art’ comes from. it’s made of the shallow aesthetics with no interiority they love so much. plus it doesn’t really require articulating your desires much, or having artists.

these short boycotts won’t fuck them on dollars, but there is a potential benefit: just in time economics and these long slow prediction-powered supply chains cannot handle this shit.

i mean, right now the question isn’t ‘violence’ it’s ‘against whom’. we fucked up all the futures that weren’t a river of blood. the fascism, the horrors, the manufactured consent and insane obedience. the question isn’t “river of blood or not” it’s “whose, and how deep?”

I personally would prefer as little as possible and none of it mine, but apparently wars where millions of conscripts die are more ethical than the assassinations of the couple dozen leaders that start them and manufacture consent to keep them going. letting people be disappeared is more ethical than stopping it. letting people die of poverty on the street is more ethical than breaking the locks on dumpsters to feed them, or putting them in vacant/airBNB’d houses.

silver lining: it is at least gonna be really fucking metal. so we’ve got at least that to look forward to.

yeah. letting any SS officer survive world war two was what caused this shit. letting any confederate officer survive is what got us that shit.

can someone explain to me the difference between corporate and government censorship, when corporations and the government are definitely fucking?
