In general, I think the risks of allowing large-scale, government/corporate-backed censorship far outweigh the potential benefits of stifling harmful works, which is a category I think one needs to be extremely judicious about the application of, anyway.

My anti-censorship stance has basically nothing to do with how I feel about any particular kind of potentially-targeted content and everything to do with the fact that I do not trust corporations or governments as far as I can throw them with the authority to make that determination.

If you use Firefox:

Go into Settings, in the search bar type "Sidebar" and select "Show Sidebar." At the bottom of the sidebar, click "Customize Sidebar" (the little gear icon) and un-check the "AI Chatbot" box.
mozilla has a rich history of shooting themselves in the foot
thankfully most of the ml stuff can be disabled through about:config
Some users report Firefox scoffing CPU power

The NHS are forcibly detransitioning trans kids in Brighton and calling it “managed withdrawal.” Their own impact assessment acknowledges trans kids will be at increased risk of harm as a result, don’t want this, and are likely to just use DIY hormones instead

Remember when I said JK Rowling spends twenty cents of each dollar you give her harming trans people?

Based on the size of the anti-trans legal fund she started, its more like $0.95 per dollar

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab.

Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls.

If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

i really want us, collectively, to understand that chat format LLMs cannot assess their own behavior. if you ask it what it did, it will construct a likely response to your query and that is all.

"why did you do this" is projection. even accusing them of "lying" is projection.

a fantastic, succinct thread on the nasty work of laundering fringe, unpopular bigotry til people who value not being like That Bigot Over There could swallow it & the replies are full folks doing “no true scotsman.”

but transphobia undeniably flopped without the work of liberal institutions. 💯
There was an elite consensus against transphobia so strong Texas’ Republican Speaker of the House Joe Straus refused to pass a transphobic law, the public broadly agreed, and then a few elite liberals took it upon themselves to make transphobia popular and more or less succeeded.
