This is daft. Any criminal advertising their criminality on their PUBLIC PROFILE is asking for it.

"Vulnerability" here is that it could be publicly accessed.
So yeah. This is a feature, not a "vulnerability".
It shouldnâ(TM)t really be surprising that the compulsive liar was lying.
"I'm so uncomfortable with myself".

They're not trying to sell it. They're selling it.
They already did engineering, and probably most of the production run, and they are putting it on sale.
No one is shitting where "we" eat because there's no "we" in this case.
We're in different rooms. I get my configuration, you get yours, and whoever wants AI browsing gets his or hers. What they do in their room is their business.
Get out of other people's homes and stop telling them what browser configuration they should be using there. You make google and microsoft looks positively nice in comparison.
No one is forcing you to use AI browsing. It's an opt in option. Don't opt in. You have a choice. Use it.
This desire to tell people "fuck you, I got mine" is incredibly damaging.
You and me are fine with current browsing. A lot of people would like AI assist. Let them have it. Freedom to choose what you want is good.
You say that like you know a damn thing about masculinity. There is nothing masculine about being an incel you little twit.
This isn't fair to Chinese government. Their entire societal model is built on low consumption high production mass transfers from people to industry. This has been reinforced for decades, and they already saw with Evergrande what happens if government tries even the tiniest deflation of the bubble this produced.
So they're naturally excessively cautious about changing flows of wealth within the system as to avoid crashing it entirely.
There are errors in some of the lyrics on these sites that are replicated everywhere. That is, you cannot find the lyrics without the errors. Anywhere....except if you have a booklet that came with the CD, I guess..
Just one example that I encountered recently. In the soundtrack of the film "Arizona dream", there is a number titled "TV screen". A line in the lyrics says "You are the target for the stars and the products on the TV screen". I hear it very clearly....Every lyrics site I checked had "planets" instead of "products".
See here for example

Can some good soul (native English speaker) listen to the song and tell me did I mishear? The whole world says "planets" but I insists the word is products. Also, products is much more in line with the the lyrics. The stars that sells us products on the TV screen.....planets just does not fit IMO.
You're describing a completely different system.
Actually PRC's funding model is mass transfers of wealth from citizenry to companies. This is a well understood policy that has been in place at least since Deng.
This is why their citizenry has such low consumption power related to state's economic prowess compared to pretty much everyone else in the world, and why PRC is so horrifically dependent on exports to actually consume what they produce.
They're not viable for export, because most of them are "basic" models.
That means features required in the place with purchasing power like the West are missing entirely. I.e. some legally mandated safety features.
Whereas in third world, they will likely be overlooked in favor of actually used cars from the West (which is the big thing most third world uses) because most of the PRC bottom tier model lack galvanic rust protection. I.e. if they sat in a middle of some remote area for a few years as is the case for countless such cars being filmed by Chinese bloggers, they're going to be already rusting quite significantly.
