We're talking billions of dollars, where is that spent? I'm no expert on the topic but I've yet to see any significant improvement from the massive amount of money the states and federal government takes from these companies. I would consider giving it back to the users who had their privacy broken would be the right move, for justice, but I have not heard that ever happening on scales like this. Redbull did like $15 gift cards for their issues with "Redbull gives you wings", but haven't seen that with big tech...I really hope you can provide more information and enlighten me.
There have been many millions of dollar fines over the years and many communities, roadways and overall infrastructure can be improved - which our taxes are supposed to pay for.
It sucks but there will always be some labor intensive queries to execute. Although, it can be limited and restricted which I'm sure they are already on top of it. Such as caching and security control put in place to make limits like "this type of request from this IP can only happen 1x per hour" or something along those lines.
If I had to guess, without looking into the source code yet and limited information provided I'd assuming it's mass account creation, image uploading and/or exploiting how the instant syncs with the fediverse. It's most certainly something that can be mostly prevented once the holes are made and then patched.
Also, I'm sure in the future something more efficient than SQL will be used.
Great call-out! Probably because most over 500 can't allow exfiltration of data for security (banks, gov, corp secrets). From my understanding most, if not all, AI data sets are built from our data.
Google and OpenAI was caught (or opening saying) using web spiders for AI datasets, crawling public data from Wikipedia, Facebook, Reddit and more. Google even using data from Google Assistant and other opt-in data "to improve their products".
I haven't looked into Microsoft but they are also using OpenAI as they are a major investor for OpenAI.
Could you link where I said โwhy does it have to be a right leaning and not some other sideโ such as you quoted, I didn't mean to put it that way, because my point is I hate sides, especially bad apples poisoning the whole barrel (left or right). What I said was:
"What makes it possible right wing and not just a troll farm? Sincerely curious why make the divide and note."
And in regards to my edit, I explained in one reply that I'm new here (https://lemmy.world/comment/2127411). And now I see I probably should've added that in my edit as well that I was coming at this literally being fresh to lemmy with no history and trying to understand why ppl were bashing all right wing with this group. After this reply https://lemmy.world/comment/2126263 I had more background on the fact that it is a known group that does this often.
However, I have still defended that correlating a bad group (as I agreed with multiple times) that is part of a large group makes the whole group bad, I don't believe is a good way of looking at it imo.
Muddy what waters? Maybe see more of my replies for context.
Who are we talking about "Theyโre literally conservative religious people", as in the rammy trolls or everyone right leaning? Because I already agreed the 20secs I saw the homepage it was unmodded, uncensored crazies.
Where does the middle east come in here, you say it like I'm already supposed to know. I also said, I block news and politics, left other social networks because of all the politics.
I started this as in, why divide and basically make tribes like "Anyone in a different party is bad". And I never said left or right was worse, I said I've had the bad luck from coming across both but that don't mean all left or all right is all bad...
Yeah, makes sense. Even if there was an option to buy the lifetime and download I would. But its a valid point it'd be too easy for people to share it then.
Thats why I think a licensing method would be best, like Threema has. You can download the app but can't use it without a license key. Even still, it would be a lot of work.
Just disappointed I can't support it, but its also my decision to not have the play store ๐คท
I would not support uniting with those trolls in any way. I had not even looked at it beforehand. I agree that being divided sucks. But I think it's important to remember that there are still good people out there, even if we don't agree on everything. We need to find ways to come together and work towards a better future, even if it's not always easy.
If I create a social media account and identify as left-leaning, I am bombarded with extremist right-wing content. The opposite is true if I identify as right-leaning. This has ruined social media for me, which is why I immediately blocked the news and political communities on Lemmy.
I do not identify as either left-wing or right-wing. I share views that are generally considered to be down the middle. This is true for the majority of people I know, who used to be called independents but now undecided. I guess thats why when an entire group is called out, it rubs me the wrong way.
I'm fresh to lemmy so know very little in relation. But put that way makes more sense. Group of known trolls who move one to another to degrade and break the network.
Isn't it possible to enable an automod feature for keywords or something across lemmy? I would image that would help.
