There are parts of the world where the Facebook app basically is the Internet. Places where most people dont own a laptop, but everyone has a cell phone and phone service comes bundled with discounted Facebook data. Their hold goes way beyond social networking to, local businesses and even government services dont have webpages, they have Facebook pages only. Every game people play runs through Facebook, and all their saves are locked up with them. Every video people post or watch runs through Facebook and its hyper localized algorithm. It would take generations to displace them.

This is pretty much what everyone said immediately after Anthropic reached for the “too powerful for the public” excuse. Weve all seen this exact song and dance before. I suppose when you’ve just finished shoveling billions of dollars of speculative funding into a data center inferno its not acceptable to say that you rolled the dice and they came up snake eyes, but its still galling to be lied to so transparently.

Just like WINE!

You would suspect wrong.

Edit: Seriously, the 90s were a wild time to be a kid if you wernt growing up in a wealthy neighbourhood. We didnt have mass shootings, but there were plenty of regular shootings.

Illegally? No, the NATO allies all work together to catch each other’s dissidents. Just because the US has gone off the rails doesnt mean the EU was innocent.
