Yea, makes sense, but if it is law already, it should already have been possible to sue these giants: class-action lawsuits that haven't been brought forward for some reason.

yea, that part was pretty shambolic, but i cant imagine a republican forgoing a chance to bash the CEO of a company run in part by the CCP when they accuse anyone to the left of trump of being a "communist" ooga booga, lol.

there are lots of ways to do this, but government-issued online ID is probably the way to go to figure out if you are talking to a human or a muppet (I'd prefer to have a private info "wallet" which is rendered and validated, but never stored anywhere but by me). I think of it as an internet driver's license. You can still post anonymously in places like reddit, lemmy and 4chan, but nobody has to take anything you say seriously.

Well, the threat was made, let's see if they follow through and what final shape that takes.

I thought it was great: unanimous bipartisan support for once, a bashing that made my voice feel heard (and Im not even American). And yet...I didnt know where to post this, half the places i posted this on reddit automod blocked it, the other half had no reaction...i was expecting live megathreads for this kind of thing...but there is just silence...do people not care about this, does this bore them or is there some intentional silencing going on by social media giants?

Yea...gpt just summaries and dresses your top Google search with an essay. It's good for cheating on essays if you're confident that the markers don't spot the hallucinations, but if you need good sources, you still need to do a Google search and that's cheaper, faster, takes less parsing to get your key information.

It's just a shame that some search engines are also mangling themselves for enshittification e.g. no word filtering using "-" because of advertising losses. I've noticed this with ddg and Google sometimes.

You could tell them that your dog made you do it because there aren't enough shows about bitches, then the ball is on their court to act crazy :D

I know, maybe trust was not the right expression. The issue is that we still buy them, even if we know they're pumped full of spyware from a country that is not an ally.

Electric cars are so much simpler than ICEs...they're almost "phones with wheels"...so IF you happen to ~~"trust"~~ "buy" their phones, it's not a huge jump to cars...but it's a jump 😅 , just not on principle.
