    Hitler and fascism in general had many supporters in the US.

  • Oh, so a short sentence can imply a more nuanced opinion on a subject? /s

    Maybe keep that in mind next time before jumping to conclusions.

    On the subject: If you want to enforce laws you have to have a way of knowing about violations. This happens via surveillance. Having CCTV is obviously surveillance but so is to show a driver's license. Or compliance documentation. So the question is not whether or not you want government surveillance or not but how much.

  • So to be clear, you are OK with disbanding any form of law enforcement?

    FFS at least try to argue in good faith.

  • There is a difference between surveillance by a democratically elected government and some random dude though.

    I.e. in Germany homeowners are only allowed to film their own property. The cameras field of view may not reach into public space.

    Also while photography in public spaces is generally allowed, people may demand the deletion of photos showing their face.

    Jump

  • Thing is: All of the examples still exist to various degrees.

    And just like them AI is not going to vanish. Even more so than the others because AI is information. It's like trying to ban E2E: The genie is out of the bottle.

            I must not mock.   
    Mocks are the mind-killer.   
    Mocks are the little-death that brings total system failure.   
    I will fully implement my tests.   
    I will permit the tests to pass over me and through me.   
    And when the tests have passed, I will turn the inner eye to see their path.   
    Where the mocks have gone there will be nothing. Only green will remain.

  • Browsers Treat Big Sites Differently

    Jump

  • I think similar how the EU adopted the USB-C as mandatory standard for charging, it should force other industries, including software vendors, to follow commonly defined standards.

    In case of browsers that is Chrome using it's de facto monopoly to force other browser to rush to catch up with their custom crap. Yes, as a side effect that would also break a lot of existing webpages because they rely heavily on browser bending over backwards to accommodate sites serving effectively broken HTML i.e. but in the long term this would improve the internet as a whole.
