So I suppose you just have to take it:

And I especially like the "legitimate interests" (or whatever) to suck data even from the "edge".

But on the bright side, I suppose now everyone (or is it just the AI companies?) have a right to create new avatars of Commissioners a'la:

And even if the two links are made to correlate...?


I mean, you can forget these too:

Because it could always be that "AI did it", right? And people have LLMs running locally too, so you never can know whose bullshit it is. And with this omnibus package, there is nothing you can do, basically (except criminal justice but then too it gets interesting if your local or remote LLM is just bullshitting you and you have no better knowledge). Post-truth, really.
