  • It probably is. Same with the narrative “if you have nothing to hide…”, which gets parroted a lot without much thought. It mainly serves to erode privacy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nothing_to_hide_argument. I think people for whatever reason think big tech is infallible, which is far from true, but very good for the companies if they want to maintain their almost god-like appearances. Companies like Google are too bloated and are anti-consumer. I highly recommend people move to other services. LLMs need to be regulated as they are far too harmful and do so much unchecked damage. I agreed that they have areas they are useful, but for instance scanning everyone’s photos on the cloud and letting AI be judge, jury, and executioner in terminating people’s accounts when they find something they think violates some arbitrary ever changing TOS policy is not a good use for them. Just ranting. Not a fan of how these companies invade privacy with AI.





  • Google’s AI is horribly invasive and has accused so many innocent people of being child abusers that it is making it harder to find actual children who are being abused and bad actors. Their AI falsely calls childhood photos and legal adult content and even cartoons as child abuse. There is no oversight. AI has its uses, but should not be used to destroy people’s lives. This is just one of many examples of a poor use of the technology that can have read world impacts like destroying a person’s reputation even when no crime was committed. Google needs to be broken up! We need data privacy and data protection laws ASAP.
