Users have the option to opt out of this by toggling off a “feature” in the app called “See My Selfie in Ads,” but according to 404 Media’s testing this feature is on by default.
Option? More like a chance to opt out. Option means users get to choose to opt in.
This type of thing shouldn't be legal. I just learned of LinkedIn doing the same thing with user content and an "opt out" setting, and I immediately toggled it off. FFS someone regulate these idiots
Profit? It's called financial well-being.

If this is serious the answer is no
Feels like a Thor movie tbh especially after seeing Chris Hemsworth in the intro lol
Don't forget the child delivery method!
Which then just feeds to the system. But as this is a globally impactful thing, is there any real world need that outweighs the harm?
I get what you're saying, but there isn't really any NEED for that
Genuine question: why do we need this type of thing?
Especially in view of the harm it can cause, what's the point of creating this aside from generating shareholder value?
Sure, creating a video out of text quickly is cool, but is there an actual need for this?
I'm a sound engineer and I use different DAWs for different purposes. There's just no one DAW that does all, so this is a compromise I'm happy to go with.
When I do podcast editing, I use Audacity to split multi-track WAV files and for truncating silence. It's just waaaay easier to do this there than on Reaper. Plus it has a loopback recording feature built-in which I use for Zoom meeting recordings etc.
I use Pro Tools for audio post, but for most of what I do I'm a Reaper guy. It's very powerful as you said and it just works.
I know it can be a hassle switching DAWs (muscle memory on shortcuts can get weird), but for me, I like making the most of the strengths of a tool rather than forcing something to do everything.
God that thumbnail is perfect it makes me sick
