Can they not make a legal claim given that their employer is putting words into their mouth in communications with the public, especially given that it’s highly politically charged wording that would damage their reputation, plus in a normal country saying such things at work like that would get you sacked.

I don’t know the legalities, but if my employer made it seem like I’d said something like that I’d demand an immediate apology, a reprimand for whomever did it, and a public redaction and apology sent to everybody that had received the fraudulent message.

That seems reasonable and fair.

Your ISP can read any text message you send and view metadata logs of any phone calls you make. In lots of places (like Australia where I live) ISPs are actually required to keep logs of your messages and phone calls

Why would my Internet Service Provider have anything whatsoever to do with my dumb phone?

Yes, texts and calls aren’t hidden from your mobile phone provider, they never were. I agree it’s not great, and the government is likely spying on you as they have been for decades.

But alas, I don’t see a solution without using a non dumb phone and encrypted apps, which will require the internet and at that point you’ve not got a dumb phone any more.

My Nokia 3310 still works great. Sure, the government could spy on me, but I don’t discuss anything sensitive over the phone (traditionally one doesn’t, for this very reason, wiretaps and the like). It’s a tool for casually staying in touch and arranging to meet up ^_

Terrorists just need to say they’re sowee and everything’s okay?

I wanted to move to Jellyfin, but there isn’t an app for it on the LG WebOS library like there is for Plex, so I wouldn’t be able to watch stuff on my TV, which sadly makes it useless for me :-(

I don’t have the money to be going out and buying extra add-ons for my TV to watch stuff either, sadly. So, Plex it is for now!

Absolutely, but also remember that they will eventually track you down and kill you for it, once their regime reaches full power.

Is a C-Party one of those sexy sex terms that people who are hip sexy swingers would understand

Hey no fair, the US is just copying us! (UK)

We targeted Wikipedia first recently waaaaa

Flag shaggers aren’t known for their high intelligence…

Let’s say this huge breach of security and privacy is okay.

How are Microsoft ensuring these sensitive documents are not being transferred via or stored on servers located in hostile countries with lax data laws (such as foreign nations like the USA?).

Is there a way to limit it to news from Europe, or at least stop it heavily leaning into American stuff?

I took a peek but it’s too often USA this and USA that, and I’m a little sick of hearing about that country in general these days, haha.

Thankee sai <3

It’s weird that I never get any of that sort of guff, same with YouTube suggestions, they’re always at minimum decent quality things I might be interested in.

I’ve never been recommended a Mister Beast video, for example, or any of that rubbish.

Not that I want to just lean on Google services or anything, it’s just really weird that the algorithm works so well for me and so poorly for other people. I really wish I knew why!

DID YOU NOW?

The nation of Nazi Germany’s flag is literally called:

“Reich and National Flag”

The nation itself no longer exists of course, but it’s still a national flag.

Anyway, to the original point of the post, dang, those Americans are really doing some weird uncool stuff these days eh? Here’s hoping they can purge their internal fascism before it’s too late.

Alas, I suspect they’ll continue to lie down and let it happen, much as the Weimar Republic did :-(

We don’t use fax machines any more grandad! It’s all twoggles now! Twoggle me a nurp!

Okay I drained another lake but I think this time I’ve got what you need;

• AI search recycles work into bland results.
• “Google Zero” may kill site traffic.
• Values human trust and personality.
• Humanity will be consumed all hail AI.
• Site is for people, not AI.

Wow, 8 whole paragraphs? Don’t worry guys ChatGPT’s got ur back 🔥😎🔥

The author criticises AI search tools like Google’s for repackaging human-created content—such as recipes—into bland, soulless summaries, depriving original creators of credit, personality, and traffic. They highlight “Google Zero,” a feared future when AI answers replace visits to real websites, threatening independent writers and the ecosystems built around them.

They stress that their website exists for human readers, not machines. Each article is crafted with care, personality, and lived experience, intended to spark thought, connection, and conversation—not to be scraped, flattened, or mimicked by corporate AI models.

Are these not still in use?

I’ve not built a tower in a few years granted, but the last one I built had PS2 ports. Heck it even had VGA for the onboard graphics.

I’m the coming civil war, they believe the MAGA Army will use Cybertrucks, so it’s best to prepare a defence against them.

Good. I’ve seen those RAM vehicles, they’re all american “tiny penis wagons” as I like to call them. Ridiculously pointlessly gigantic vehicles, all the better for running down children and guzzling petrol.

The tossers who drive those don’t deserve good things.
