Tech companies from across the world, including giants like Alphabet, Meta, Mistral Al and ASML have been urging the European Commission to delay rolling out the Al Act, saying it will hurt Europe’s chances to compete in the fast-evolving Al arena.

This alone tells me enough that rolling out this legislation should be top priority.

Awesome!!!

Let me tap on the sign again cause you don’t seem to understand:

Websites are private spaces, and like most private spaces, have their own rules to abide by. It’s their right to make those rules whatever they want

YouTube is not a public space It’s YouTubes room. They make the rules and yes they have the power. What part don’t you understand?

Whatever comment you are leaving is unwelcome by the channel creator or YouTube and it’s within their rights to remove it.

Once again: No one is obligated to host your opinion in a private space. YouTube is not a public space.

So come on tell us. What’s the big truth you’ve been posting onto people’s YouTube channels?

Ok. So here the fun bit. I’m one of those people that does read them. I look into the privacy policy of the technology and websites that I use.

Most terms of service are very similar and are broken down into categories usually. Finding the content and privacy sections doesn’t take long and once you read a few they all become easier to understand.

You might not like it but “I agree” is enough to be legally binding. Just because you didn’t want to read doesn’t mean others don’t. There are a lot of laws and 10 sentences won’t cover that.

What do you think the terms and conditions when you make accounts are? That’s why they make you agree to them up front. You chose not to read them and ignore them.

On YouTube the channel operator and the company have a say in how they want their space to be. You have no right to insist on being heard in every damn room you enter. That includes “just leaving a comment for those that want to read it”

If the person or company doesn’t want your opinion in their room it is their right to remove it. Like it or not.

Websites are private spaces, and like most private spaces, have their own rules to abide by. It’s their right to make those rules whatever they want

That includes removing whatever post they like or dislike. If you post something against the terms of service and your post gets removed, that’s on you.

Nobody is obligated to amplify your opinion.

Semantics. I posted that to piss people off.

Thanks for showing up for the shit fandom part of the trap.

What do you mean? Like just insulting people?

Like calling the pope the head of a pedo organization?

Or like calling someone a Nazi for voting for Trump and still being on Twitter?

You having an attention span like that explains why you liked it.

Found the libertarian that doesn’t understand the concept of free speech. 😂

As BlueBerryDreams aptly put it:

Freedom of speech is a protection from persecution from the government, not an obligation for all other parties to be exposed to your speech. Websites are private spaces, and like most private spaces, have their own rules to abide by. It’s their right to make those rules whatever they want, and people can choose the rules that make a more pleasant space to occupy.

Nobody is obliged to broadcast your opinion if they don’t like what you say.

Say whatever you want. If you aren’t spewing literal hate speech, who cares if you offended or upset someone with a different opinion than yours.

Here are a few:

Ai slop is rotting the average persons brain.

Game of Thrones and Breaking bad are fucking boring.

Religions are cults. No exceptions.

Celebrities are the worst part of any media.

Pineapple on pizza isn’t a big deal, what’s more important is that it’s thin crust.

Honestly it’s like comparing poo and shit.

They both are crap and should be avoided and stepped over.

Your response is: want to be more productive? Replace the CEO and pointless middle management with Ai! Image how much money the shareholders would save!

Well it’s TikTok. Nothing but brainrot on there. Just get off the platform if you value human thought.

It fucking makes you stupid.

Yeah no fucking shit! These corporate dickbags need more pushback on their fetish with putting Ai into everything.

It’s either fucking spyware like copilot or plagiarism generators as replacements for paying actual artists.

Noobs welcome?

Just got switched to Linux this year after windows killed itself with an update.

Looking to learn more about self hosting and get more exposure to FOSS software. Been learning blender for a while and am in the process of setting up my first pie hole as well.

They are a plague with how prevalent they have become.

The internet shouldn’t put all its eggs into one basket.

It’s just another centralized entity which will lead to monopolized power. It goes against what we are trying to do with federated networks like Lemmy and mastodon.

Someone has to push for the change that we so desperately need. Someone needs to say no when everyone else is willingly bending over.

Don’t go cold turkey if that’s what you need to live but damn more people need to stand up and say fuck that noise, if it’s not a business then they have a choice to go somewhere better.

Fucking countries need to get their entire communication system of corporate social media.

Gosh people need to think for themselves again and not just do whatever the lowest common denominator is doing.
