The religious coalition behind the petition owns about $172 million in shares of the five companies.

OK so basically nothing. Those companies combined are worth hundreds of billions. Maybe even over one trillion in total.

Walmart alone has a market cap of $558 billion.

Electric school buses require a fraction of the maintenance costs of traditional diesel buses. Forget extra funding... That fact alone makes them worth it for every school district.

When one of two things happens:

  • A new hype starts to replace it (can happen fast though!)
  • The hype starts to specialize into subcategories of the hype (e.g. AI images, AI videos, AI text generation)

When "AI" hype dies down we are likely to see "AI" removed from various topics because enough people know and understand the hyped parent topic. It'll just be "image generation", "video generation", "generated text", etc.

It's not enough! With the Chevron doctrine being abandoned and the Securities and Exchange Commission v. Jarkesy decision (where they basically ended the use of administrative law justices, forcing the use of full jury trials) the caseload of the Federal courts is about to skyrocket.

They're going to need to quadruple (or more) the Federal judiciary if they want it to be able to keep up.

Market shows that hype is a cycle and the AI hype is nearing its end.

My doorbell camera manufacturer now advertises their products as using, "Local AI" meaning, they're not relying on a cloud service to look at your video in order to detect humans/faces/etc. Honestly, it seems like a good (marketing) move.

It is absolutely not the only way to implement EDR. Linux has eBPF which is what Crowdstrike and other tools use on Linux instead of a kernel module. A kernel module is only necessary on Windows because Windows doesn't provide the necessary functionality.

Mitigating factors: Use (and take) regular snapshots and test them. My company had all our virtual desktops restored within half an hour on that day. If you don't think Windows Volume Shadow Copy is capable or actually useful for that in the real world then you're making my argument for me! LOL

Another option is to use systems (like Linux) that let you monitor these sorts of EDR things while remaining super locked down. You can run EDR tools on immutable Linux systems! You can't do that on Windows because (of backwards compatibility!) that OS can't run properly in an immutable share.

Windows was not made to be secure like that. It's security contexts are just hacks upon hacks. Far too many things need admin rights (or more privileges!) just to function on a basic level.

OSes like Linux were built to deal with these sorts of things. Linux, specifically, has gone though so many stages of evolution it makes Windows look like a dinosaur that barely survived the asteroid impact somehow.
