Cloudflare continues to push the worst shit combination of centralization of the internet and genAI bullshit but congratulations, they've hit a new combo so bad I didn't even consider it possible https://blog.cloudflare.com/agents-stripe-projects/

@cwebber AI agent driven scam service as a platform. One agent slurps a corporate website, another uses that to create a website that collects personal data, and a third comes up with a bunch of variants of the original URL and register them to point at the scam site. All assisted by Cloudflare.

@alienghic

surely he means that he would like to just give all the poor people homes and the necessities so they are no longer poor! /s

@theeclecticdyslexic

I'm pretty sure that's what they'd say in a court

[theeclecticdyslexic@mstdn.social]

@alienghic let's be real, they are male. I am near certain there is an empty intersection between female elites, really wants to talk to epstein, but needs to wait until after basketball, in 2011.

edit: good, but not certain, chance they are on this list.

edit 2: changed my mind, would just have called gates "Bill".

@theeclecticdyslexic

I think in this case I was thinking of they as in plural. as several of them seem interesting in "getting rid of the poors"

[theeclecticdyslexic@mstdn.social]

@alienghic Ah ya, fair enough.

I find it so fascinating that they even entertain the idea, as if their wealth isn't a product of the poors. It feels like a rancher saying, "well how are we going to get rid of all these cows?"

[tanith@social.artemislena.eu]

@alienghic @WeirdWriter @cwebber

I think they want the poor dead

That doesn't make sense tho'f they wanna be rich. "Rich" is relative; it can only exist when there's poor people also.

Poverty'd be solved by taxing the rich (n redistributing their wealth to the poor).

@ireneista @cwebber I have been “guilty” of this when prototyping. I even asked a vendor once and they said they do not care, they accept it happens and it’s all factored in.

[ireneista@adhd.irenes.space]

@samir @cwebber haha, good to hear

[tanith@social.artemislena.eu]

@alienghic @WeirdWriter @cwebber So they may want poor people leading short n miserable lives (or they may not want't n are just ignorant on how ultimately them choosing to remain rich causes just that), but in fact, for maintaining their lifrstyle, they do need them existing as a class (even'f they're not dependent on any individual one)

@experimentmapass Pls don't use that word in my mentions. Thanks!

[highvoltage@pleroma.debian.social]

@cwebber I'm all for it! The people who use this kind of shit deserves what they get, let it all burn!

Humans can be in the loop to grant permission and must accept Cloudflare's terms of service, but no human steps are otherwise required from start to finish.

Humans are still required to sign this contract but there's now no need for them to read it.

Incredible business model concept. The software tool that buys our product for you. Saving you the hard work of deciding if you want to buy our product. 10/10 no note.

@cwebber I don’t even want or need this machine drug. Why is it here!?!?!!! I remember in 1999 people used to actually be capable of administering their own websites.

I really wish we could go back to lan party like it was 1999

@eramdam @cwebber this is how AI stops itself. Extreme debt.

[dckim@mstdn.ca]

@idren @cwebber there really isn't this much complication about it is there?

People seem to be convinced that all of these things are necessary... all just to run a simple website.

In reality, you don't need much to do it.

[idren@mstdn.ca]

@dckim @cwebber my website is one HTML file and a PNG and I’m not even wasting time with HTTPS because it’s unnecessary for what I’m serving
