          The crackdown on Anthropic isn't about 'national security'—it’s about control. Dario Amodei drew red lines against mass domestic surveillance and autonomous lethal weapons. The DoD and White House, heavily influenced by the Thiel-Vance axis, demanded 'any lawful use' without exceptions. Resistance isn't a supply chain risk; it’s an ethical stand.

              According to the court, correcting misinformation is not the responsibility of third parties. Google is the only entity with the ability to modify the technology underpinning its AI-generated summaries and, therefore, “must be held accountable.” Furthermore, the court found that Google's line of defense lacked merit, since the challenged summary “contains statements that do not appear at all in the search results.”

Loss of privacy and living standard should not be equated with efficiency gain. There is no gain where the people end-up losing their quality of life through loss of freedom and loss of jobs.

                            I've seen where Torvalds said that he considers them as just another tool in the Arsenal, he doesn't really care, if the code is good.

                            He doesn't want his time to be wasted  He'll scream and shout if an LLM creates that time pit

                            These following words an extreme version of me would say

                            It looks like you will have to stop using Linux. Since from your perspective anything that uses remotely an LLM is bad, you will have to stop, otherwise you will contribute to the environment being destroyed willingly and actively

                            In practice that is impossible. If you drive a modern car it has the Linux kernel. If you have a smart TV or more you're also using the tainted kernel. Even if you have a stick which also streams or a camera you will have a Linux kernel in many cases.

                            These LLMs are an infection of the planet's  code base

                            Since you're already using BSD a solution would be to cut using Linux on your computers drastically

                                      IT being a neverending nightmare [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

                                      Computers used to be fun. I used to use Windows 9x, and it was unstable as hell, and you kept having to lean over backwards to get things to work. Then I used bleeding edge Linux, and at some point I've ended up running pure framebuffer tty for months because X11 was broken. But despite all the breakage (or maybe even because of it), it was fun. It was fun because random accidental breakage was the worst you could expect.

                                      Nowadays, accidental breakage is rare. Things are relatively stable. However, every step of the way you have to watch out for bad actors. No, not criminals, they are rare. Evil corporations who are looking at every opportunity to fuck you up. Using computer is no longer fun, it's no longer a tool that helps you, and it's no longer your choice. You are forced to use it, and if you don't want to be hurt every step of the way, you have to spend all the effort on fighting back. And you're fucked up anyway, because even if you manage, your family and all the people around you won't care and will let their devices, their computers and their smartphones fuck you up.

                                      I've started using FLOSS so many years ago, for the trivial reason that I didn't want to pay for software. I stayed because I enjoyed doing it. And I wanted to make a difference, I wanted to contribute positively to the world. Even if in a little way, but I wanted to be able to say that as much harm I've done to the planet, there's at least something positive to balance it out.

                                      But nowadays I hate FLOSS. It's been overrun by the worst people in the world. The people who aren't happy with just fucking you up. They want everyone to keep fucking everyone up. It's the kind of horror where whatever you do, it turns out you're causing harm.

                                      I don't trust my work anymore. So much of the software I touch turns out to be . When I file a pull request, I'm worried it will trigger reviews. When I file a bug, I'm worried it will trigger LLM responses. And today, I've learned that my old bug report to a project resulted in a dozen slop pull requests already. Whatever you do, folks smile and tell you "see, you fucked up the world even more after all".

                                      Honestly, I don't know what to do. I hate all of this so much. But even if I managed to figure out something else to do for a living, I can't escape computers. And if I stop doing them, if I stop fighting them, I will only end up being fucked up more.
