I guess being put on the sex offender registry is kind of like doxxing, if you shove a crayon up your nose before thinking about it
Listen to this Border Patrol agent cry about how he's going to be DOXXED after being arrested for drunkenly barging into a woman's restroom with a loaded gun, demanding a date from the woman inside, and then punching the arresting officers.

The corollary is that speed is crucially important when changing things. Once the change is complete, people adapt and then will defend it.
This is the political reason why long consultation/review processes are fatal. (The $ reason is interest payments)

The @nytimes.com decided last year what the narrative was going to be, and they will never forgive you for not falling in line.

So much time, ink, & nonsense spilled explaining why the smallest pandemic/inflation-driven anti-incumbent backlash in the entire democratic world was a Paradigm Shifting Tidal Wave Of Crisis For The Democrats. Incredibly parochial in so very many ways.

I'm generally a "criminal sentencing as deterrent does not actually deter anything" person BUT I've very rapidly come around to the position that this explicitly inverts when it comes to people in power. Sending messages about what a democracy will do to protect itself is mission critical.

the fundamental problem is that if you start fining people for copyright violation on training data all that's gonna happen is companies that already own all the data become stronger monopolies
like it's not gonna stop AI art it just ensures any art AI will be owned by Disney or similar

While I agree that the one class getting away w/ breaking these laws = huge companies, Idt that still justifies the existence or enforcement of said laws. Utterly bizarre watching everyone I know turncoat on the IP/copyright subject as soon as LLMs/“AI” became introduced to the equation.

Apparently the thing it takes for Matt Yglesias to defend a DSA-style candidate who talks about oligarchy and M4A was for that candidate to reveal a secret connection with National Socialism, which, uh, maybe it's time to do some really deep reflection on how in-group posturing has baked your gourd
