Sacrificing what you want is the option.

I doubt offering AI services to the public is their goal.

This behavior from companies is so predictable that I’m perpetually disappointed in my fellow human beings for ever buying this equipment.

“…would make it more difficult for UK security and intelligence services to monitor communications…” As if they have a right to do so already.

It denies normal people the ability to retain their privacy from corporate and government surveillance.

Does the government have the right to monitor any and all communications corporate, private or political?

They don’t care how it affects normal people’s lives or what we sacrifice to pay for their incompetent leadership.

Spending money isn’t voting.

No you can’t personally decide who runs anything, in either case. But you get a vote when it’s a government, you get nothing when it’s private.

Yeah, but it might depend on the company bylaws even if its privately owned.

As a legal requirement.

But they elected and keep supporting them, news at 12.

You can not re-elect the ppl to decide who runs it…

How is it so expensive?

It’s a demonstration of capability, not utility.

Court of public opinion, eager to find ways to sate their thirst for justice…or investigation…or…literally any action regarding Epstein.

That poor fool…

Pfft caring about anything but myself, what a suckers game.

And consumers are treated like Guinea Pigs in an unregulated market.

It is unwise to trust the words of anyone with something to lose by speaking truth or something to gain by speaking a lie.
