I am not the least bit surprised coming from the authors of the "E2EE must be banned" and the main promoters of the ever lurking chat control law. One thing we have to hand it to europol, they are very transparent in their desire for a police state.

The importance is being “fully reproducible” in order to make the model trustworthy.

Well that's a problem, because even with training data that's impossible by design.

Dual boot, although I usually prefer to drop it rather than go to the trouble.

I wouldn't recommend virtualization, not only do you lose performance when you need it most, but (depending on the devices and system) setting everything up properly can be very tedious.

"Mounds of wastepaper and filth will soon be scattered over the border areas and the interior of the ROK and it will directly experience how much effort is required to remove them," North Korea's vice-minister of defence Kim Kang Il said

They are truly diabolical. It is an unprecedented escalation, I think they are one step away from total war.

Don't wait for it, usage data is valuable to them.

I noticed that while using phind and perplexity. Its context is vitiated with results from sites that rig SEO, which are almost copy/paste with the same garbage, so instead of answering the question it makes a useless summary of them. Even asking chatgpt usually gives more correct answers.

They could also perform some additional iterations with other models on the result to verify it, or even to enrich it; but we come back to the issue of costs.

Any other contract in everyday life would be invalid under these terms; consent must be affirmative and informed. “I have read and accept the terms” is a crude lie that should be illegal but is tolerated for convenience, and which allows to justify all kinds of abuses.

The mozilla case is even worse, because they've even bragged about how they respect affirmative consent by asking their users if they allow telemetry (they've never really fully complied), and about being respectful of privacy in general. They deserve to be criticized for it, and that's what people are doing here, but your responses of “if you don't like it go away, the competition is worse” only legitimizes bad behavior.

Lawyers love that trick.

"You most likely would have agreed, so why bother asking for your consent?"

Perhaps having different categories with different limitations would work well. Using the firefox example, prioritize the use of WebExtensions, but keep XUL/XPCOM with appropriate warnings.
