Only took them this long to come to some common sense. How long before they rename and back again this like they did with Intune.

HHC-Hunter··on EU member states still cannot agree about end-to-end encryption
Eh, while I agree with the comments around desire. I think it compounds the bigger the governing body. Look at the five eyes for example.

HHC-Hunter··on Purchase and manage domains directly through Bluesky
Can anyone answer me this, where is the funding for bluesky coming from?
HHC-Hunter··on Europe: Is compulsory military service coming back?
To effectively "de-fuse" the situation in Ukraine, significant historical events would have to have not happened.

To start, the EU loan deal in late 2012 and the CIA-backed coup d'etat known as "Euromaidan" in 2013, could/should have played out differently. Instead it's evident that key players like Victoria Nuland, the CIA / Imperialistic Neo-con agenda played a significant role in exacerbating tensions during that time, ultimately leading to the destabilization of the country.

Secondary, Ukraine should have ceded the eastern territories as "independent states" in 2015 post the Minsk agreements.

Those events have lead to the "special military operation" in 2022, as they disregard the clearly defined "red line" of NATO being in Ukraine which was set by Putin a long time ago.

To defuse things now though? (It's too late now, the Military industrial complex has their pound of flesh.) Have Ukraine exist freely, similar to Finland before it joined NATO. This would respect Ukraine's sovereignty and ensure its independence without it being a vassal to geopolitical alliances.

HHC-Hunter··on Snowden Revelations 10-Year Later: Greenwald Speaks with Snowden and Poitras
The average civilian will harp on about OpenAI collecting their data but will never give two thoughts that their own elected officials are tracking everything they do on the internet.

I ponder on this often.

> Where are you going to get the training data, once copyright law is amended to protect artists from this intellectual property theft?

The same places as before?

What's stopping anyone from training these models? The cat is out of the bag and artists need to learn they will have to cede on these copyright issues.

Similar to musicians having to cede on digital reproduction of music.
