@matthiasott @Wilto It should hopefully be apparent that moving cost to the end-user is rapidly becoming the "keep the bubble inflating at all cost" strategy right now because those data-centres aren't looking so sure now...
Remember when Norton installed a cryptominer? Good times.

No web standard should require you to agree to an advertising company’s “terms of use.”

The most insane entitled-google-privilege BS to me is this bit:
"Gemini Nano is on your device if you’re using Chrome, and it will be again if you remove it, unless you start tearing out wires in ways that the average user of the web can’t. So, in short: you now have an LLM running on your machine, and any website you visit can make use of it, and whatever processing resources it requires."

@matthiasott @Wilto and how much access will those websites get to all those other things you also do on your same laptop?

@kitkat_blue @matthiasott @Wilto Google trying to outrun Microsoft in Entitled Bullshit Olympics, it's a tight race.
Strongly reminds me of Windows reinstalling nonsense via Windows Update which you just got rid of.

@matthiasott @Wilto The difference being that I can carry bear spray on hikes. Though I’ve fortunately never had to reach for it - most black bears are pretty content to ignore humans and just keep chowing down on berries. I’d rather deal with them than AI.
