this is definitely against their interests, unless they just plan on having people watch ads everytime they open a video, watch that video for like 1 second and go to next and watch more ads. There is no depth of depravity i wont put past corporation executives, so that feels very plausible how they think and how detached they are from humans.

It could even be prelude to some other even more horrible, like they start gatekeeping actually decent stuff with premium aggressively.

We should really start archiving the good content of youtube more, just in case.. I would too, but i dont have that much extra harddrive space and i dont have energy enough to start learning to build a personal storage system that is secure and fault resistant.

I hope humanity hasnt become too docile, walking peacefully into the slaughterhouse.

Peaceful resistance is good if you have infinite amount of time, so we should be prepared to be non-peaceful and actually resist these fuckers. Maybe even forcing their hand and making them tighten the screws on populace to keep control would help with people wanting actual change because they wouldnt be so comfortable with the oppression anymore, i dont know.

but at this point i'm at peace with either option, resist or die. i just would prefer if humanity didnt go out / lose all potential because of few vile beings.

maybe they are bitter because they cant live forever and want to take us out. Make as much money out of us as they can, live lavish life and leave everything in ruins after they are done. If we let them, we deserve it. But i dont think we should let them.

Anyone that can should do at least some act of resistance, even if it feels meaningless. Throwing a fucking rock at datacenter physically affects nothing, but symbolically it has value. Imagine 100 people throwin a rock at datacenter, while still likely doenst do anything it would be big message to everyone else. Though it would likely also result in getting into trouble, so everyone should also do some risk evaluation what they can get away with. But simple graffitti could also be effective or even just plain speaking your mind loudly about things.

And most importantly, what the enemy fears most is our unity. So everyone should definitely do everything they can to improve that. Together we stand, separated we die.

people who wibecode are not coders, they generally have no idea what the text does that the llm spouts to them.

anyone can inform the authorities, and should they continue to ignore then that is clear next goal of the campaign -> removal of corrupt officials that dont care about the law.

why stop there? they should add minutes of metal screeching at max volume on random places and make new super premium that lets you skip that too. the possibilities are infinite!

it sounds insane though, replace the "ai" with anything else and it would effectively be like telling you to waste companys money as much as possible

why remove them at all? its not like they are getting any real consequences for anything they do

if they ever thought that way in the first place

also effectively wasting planets resources

i wonder how easy it would be to build something that can reach the orbit and collide with the damn thing to deorbit it, if this nightmare ever becomes reality
