Sure, but even the specific case isn't about TOS within the limits of screen time or online browsing. It's about tracking your physical location via Tile trackers. Sure, you can get off streaming services, but you're still signing a TOS or waiver by using any service. Meta/Google/etc has a profile on you even if you've never logged in based on others sharing their contacts and pictures that may include you.

>It's about tracking your physical location via Tile trackers.

1. If the complaint is about non-consensual tracking, using a gadget that's specifically designed and advertised for tracking, and that you have to specifically go out and buy and put on your body is a terrible example.

2. Tile trackers have more or less been replaced with airtags and whatever google's equivalent is, which is designed in such a way that prevents companies from knowing its actual location.

It's a completely grotesque point you've got. Tiles are advertised as used for personally tracking your devices. To the average person its the same technology as a Bluetooth earbud. Not a device for tracking at a central whatever 100 companies want that data.

And for 2... thats completely irrelevant. "More or less"? So... a hundred of millions of tiles still out there is "more or less"?

It is

AI content is clearly marked as such.

The rest is written by me personally on my shoddy MacBook.

That explains the writing style.

The problem is that this becomes a race to the bottom of actual quality and turns into advertising.

Sponsored reviews of products are basically this. If you are paying a reviewer for a stamp of approval and the reviewer sets the bar too high, why would you want to pay that reviewer? On the other end of the reviewer, it's easy to get more money by providing that stamp of approval to more people--not fewer--so they're incentivized to make it fairly easy to achieve.

Ideally, yes? Or a reference ticket number pointing to that discussion

The main limitation is the human effort to compile that information, but if the LLM already has the transcript ready, its free

"LLMs are good at [task I'm not good enough at to tell the LLM is bad at]" is becoming common

I don't get the point of this argument. Yes, the people who buy pinhole cameras are creeps too

why is someone protecting their property/children creep?

Pinhole cameras ain't for that

why not? secret camera is sometimes better than letting others know they are being filmed

For what benefit? A secret camera is not a deterrent as by definition it can only be used reactively.

AI is a big driver of literal direct physical corruption. Language and knowledge is forever tainted because of an outpouring of AI generated spam. Evaluating resumes is more difficult now because you can't tell real impacts versus fabricated hallucinations. Open source projects are overwhelmed with AI generated PRs...

Any corruption is emboldened by AI, it's a catalyst of the problem, doesn't seem anywhere close to potentially being a fix

The breeze is more like a 2 ton harvester expertly engineered to knock your tree down.

What's stopping the price from being extremely low? Plenty might pay $1 to take a bundle of 1000 items of clothing, pick through it and find 20 items they like, then destroy the 980 other items.

Isn't that still better than it all getting destroyed?

Also if someone is buying new goods for pennies on the dollar, I'd expect them to find some value in more than 2% of the stock.

Except being destroyed locally in a controlled or regulated process and shipped to be destroyed overseas with more relaxed regulations are not equal footprint wise

sounds like an improvement on the current system, no?

980 items being shipped then destroyed versus 1000 items being destroyed.

It's 980(x+y) instead of 1000(x)

I have no knowledge of the tradeoffs, but I might also imagine that the method of destruction could be worse: incineration vs landfill vs thrown in the ocean, etc

Not quite when you are burning a ton of fuel to ship them overseas to arrive in the burn pit.
