As suspected. 63% of the Arab world are propagandized.

I mean even with chatgpt enterprise you prevent that.

It’s only the consumer versions that train on your data and submissions.

Otherwise no legal team in the world would consider chatgpt or copilot.

I mean… Many anti Israel folks are borderline abusive. Denying rapes happened, trying to call Hamas freedom fighters, praising the Oct 7th attack etc. This is the exact shit (and worse) platforms have been demonetizing or removing people for except this time it’s the “other side” doing it.

Israel has historically wiped the floor with most of these countries even without us aid.

Never forget they had like 5 countries try to invade in the war of 1948 and they fought back each one and in many cases conquered territory. (Example they had part of Egypt etc and gave it back).

Granted things have changed a bit but they still maintain a fairly significant military force.

They aren’t really worried.

Usenet isn’t a centralized thing though… This is just Google groups stopping Usenet support. Plenty of newsgroup providers.

Lol might as well be. Thor. The former Blizzard security dude who turned game Dev and live streams now.

To quote Thor. Star citizen is a storefront pretending to be a game.

Israel is also where a large percentage of our medical equipment and I think drugs too are from.

Why would they do ceasefire though? Every time they have done it they’ve broken it.

Like it’s been tried several times now. And it hasn’t worked.

Ultimately this is the thing to worry about. Threads will get the largest communities and as a result the main amount of attention and when/if Meta decides to defederate, it will ruin things. Also, people will generally give zero shits about federation because 99.9% of content will be on meta’s instance.

Ironically, the main thing keeping fediverse from being more popular (the decentralized approach and “multiple places the same community can exist”) are going to be the thing that kills it if Meta gets involved and becomes the big boy.

Idunno what is arguably worse. The fediverse being restricted to more “technical” folks who give a shit, and thus a far more limited audience than a central platform, or being suddenly disconnected from the hivemind after taking all the content.

(Fwiw, I absolutely think that the Threads fediverse plan is to totally absorb all the content and become the main place for it then possibly pull the plug but honestly at that point they won’t even need to the usage stats will basically do the same thing for them.)
