Yes and no

Call it a nanny state but companies have been abusing kids to help and back with social media which, IMHO is a much, MUCH bigger problem than porn. I'm all for a ban on social media for kids under 18 at least.

I fully agree that we need privacy and a system should be put in place that does t spy on the citizens bu at the same time we do need protections for the citizens

The entire "he who sacrifices privacy for security" is a bad faith argument. Tell that to a 70yo granny who just lost all of her life savings to scammers. Tell that to the 15 year old that just committed suicide due to some social media bullshit. Tell that to the countless teenagers wrestling with anxiety and can't get themselves away from social media anymore because companies refined their algorithms so far that they're addicting as fuck.

That is where governments are supposed to step in. Not everything should be legal or else we should also permit owning weapons grade plutonium. Yes, that is an extreme, but its to show that we need limits and the question is where

Yes, government can be abusive and very much on the wrong side, like with the marijuana prohibition that broke and ended countless lives. Now Europe wants to spy in all chats FFS.

Those are great examples.of bad government control but just because these bad examples exist doesn't meant hat any government control is bad

I would favor an age verification system that is guaranteed anonymous. That shouldn't be too hard to setup if the government gives out codes to the citizens, and they can give independent non profit foundations a list of the codes with only the birthdate. Citizen supplies the anonymous code to website, website requests age at foundation, that's it.

Foundation can't legally reveal to government (or anyone for that matter) what code visited what, and the foundation doesn't know what code is what citizen

It's just a random idea written on the toilet, I'm sure there are better algorithms out there to do this, but the point is that it can be done in a fair, dependable and anonymous way.

We need SOME control, no control just doesn't work.

At least apply the controls to all the big players for starters

Have my upvote

There are always a few shitty players out there. There are European companies that support Israel in their genocide. Just because a few companies do so, doesn't mean that an entire country does so

Fuck off

If you can't see the difference between the batt majority of a country and a few shitty players then go have a talk somewhere else. While at it, take your 51st state bullshit and shove it where the light won't shine

Killing the palantir CEO would be good for business too, but there is a reason why we don't do certain things, like these, for example...

Absolutely These people don't care about kids that they don't know being abused. Their own children dying on the battlefield though, that's a different matter

~~we ~~ you will have to work through societal disruption

FTFY, because he won't have to, and won't work through societal disruption, he will just buy another Ferrari with his extra money or some shit

Having said that, AI as it currently is isn't AI, it's fucking LLMs, and LLMs as they are today won't do any of this shit that is being promised. LLMs pretty much have platoed out, and won't be getting any better soon.

The AI bubble will burst, it's just a question of how quickly and how much of the world will explode with it

And yet again, not only did everyone in power let this bubble form AGAIN, everyone in power AGAIN three everything they got on top of it, believing that the rainbow s end really did have a pot of gold. When the economy eventually breaks badly, AGAIN, those in power will bail out the CEOs with OUR money, blame some easy target that isn't them, and claim there was no way to avoid any of this shit. A few pretend to care laws will be put in place, they won't do shit to prevent the next bubble, but not that it matters because those laws will then be revealed again 5-10 years from now because they'll be remotely standing in the way of the next bubble that is going to be awesome for ~~everyone~~ the top 0.1%

So. Can we now finally outlaw multi millionaires and abovd? Can we now finally cap personal networh at 10-20 million dollars and any income above that goes 100% to taxes? Can we finally cap company networths at 1 billion, maybe 1000 employees, max? Any income above that, 100% to tax

I don't want a single trillion dollar company, I want a million million dollar companies

What does the US do with mass murderers, again?

see trump as enemy of ~~Europe~~ the entire world

FTFY

director of demand generation

You just gotta love those LinkedIn idiots... I am a protein rotation specialist, also known as a burger flipper at McDonald's

The only difference between that example and this woman is that the guy at McDonald's is doing actual work with actual results where this director of demand generation is a job that is entirely made up and doesn't do shit.

Any company having a demand generation director is a huge red flag that should be avoided like the plague

Also, lower wages don't do shit if all the companies revenue goes to the exec c suite

Of course not, that would require a spine
