What has happened is that the distillers have made use of the frontier models in ways that violate the "Terms of Service".

The question at hand is whether the terms of service should even be allowed to contain those clauses. If you're paying for access to the model, it should be your business what you use the output for. If they don't want you using the data you got out of it, they can not sell you access to it in the first place.

some workers who were paid below $50,000 per year will walk away with pay increases that are as much as 34%."

Anyone mad about this should note that $50,000 per year is what In-n-Out Burger pays a FT employee in California, and then they should fuck off to the farthest possible point to fuck off to, and then fuck off some more.

By your logic

You don't know shit about logic, son, you only know emphasis.

There are better ways to fight mass surveillance than to attack the one who had nothing to do with it. Thats how innocent workers end up dead in the streets.

There are no innocent workers installing surveillance equipment. Zero.

the person downloading such a component is responsible for "looking over it" before using it.

I'm sorry, but since when?

Since the license disclaimed responsibility.

You absolutely should not be tasking every single user of major projects with the responsibility of doing a code review on the whole thing before installing it.

And yet that is the current, prevailing situation. There is no warranty, so you are responsible, full stop. But this is true for closed commercial software as well. If they are exploited and consequently send you malware, it's your problem.

There needs to be a clear distinction between "fly-by-night thing that some rando uploaded" and "library that a million people depend on".

There hasn't been since we moved away from the cathedral model, but you couldn't trust the cathedrals either.

But now we have both (including the potential for "soundalikes") installed by the same means with no distinctions made by the install method.

The serious things get integrated into distributions and you can get them that way. If you choose to get them another way in order to get a newer version or a fork, you are taking an additional risk. Again, this is how the bazaar model has always worked. This is not new.

rather it just outs you as being on the spectrum.

That I can look things up in a dictionary? Fine. I'd rather be on several spectra all day than be an ignorant prick who deludes himself through misuse of words that do not mean what they think they mean but invoke an emotional response that convinces me that I'm right, like a warm blanket of bullshit.

You're choosing to use words that don't mean what you claim they mean on purpose to try to make your argument sound legitimate, by ascribing things to a piece of software which flatly do not apply. It's not a metaphor, it's just moronic.

I think this is how celebrities feel, stalked by cameras. It is what killed Princes Diana.

Riding around with an arms merchant is what killed Diana. Alternatively, some claim she was about to expose something about land mines, but there's really nothing to expose there since nobody doesn't know that people use them and in order for that to happen, someone has to make them and sell them. Nobody wants to know any of this shit because all of the allegedly civilized/developed nations are in on it. They are ALL massive arms dealers. Watch some videos from the UK tank museum sometime, they talk constantly about how these vehicles were sold to that regime and participated in such and such conflict, usually without mentioning that they were acts of oppression or whatnot. It's just all jerking off over military hardware all the time.

It's now illegal to investigate fraud in California.

Every CWD (county welfare department) in California has a SIU (special investigations unit) made up of badge-and-gun-carryingcops. If you have evidence of fraud like trafficking of EBT cards, your CWD's SIU department would appreciate a call.

Nope. Going broadcast for both creates fairness.

You misunderstand. In a live broadcast Paxton may mentioned some inconvenient truth about Talarico. Some things he did or said. A live broadcast allows that to reach the public. In a YouTube based interview that can be edited out.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA

I triple-quaduple promise you that Paxton would WANT his video edited out to remove things which are true. But it will never happen because he is a) too much a coward and b) too busy doing securities frauds which you support because it goes along with your support for child rape.
