Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

Categorizing a tech company that builds anonymized communications platforms as a "terror" entity should be a five-alarm fire for anyone who cares about free speech and online privacy -- regardless of whether you sympathize with anarchist type folks.

Let's talk about lawyering and AI. I've talked a lot about how using consumer generative AIs for legal matters is a bad idea, and I get a lot of pushback and questions about that. So let's talk! As always, this is NOT legal advice. This IS, however, a gross oversimplification,

One underdiscussed aspect of professional Liberalism is how it's mostly dominated by semi Western chauvinists who believe the US is a force for good and that any opposition must be because they "they hate our freedoms and superior culture" and not because of war, sanctions, or economic coercion.

also, it is a very easy and quick line to, "these stories about ICE/Gaza/Epstein/Hate Crimes, and other news stories are too much for children/teens, news sites also must verify IDs." Which would create a very specific database of who's reading/sharing which stories.
