Because Youtube is about half AI slop these days.
If "3x more" means proportional, then TT must be about 150% slop.
Probably a pretty good estimate...

Submission + - About that DC terror plot
An anonymous reader writes: How come this disappeared from the news so fast? When I search for updates on the story all I can find is repeats of the week-old stories of five arrests, and some mentions that their trial may be held outside DC.
What about the other score or so of conspirators they were looking for? Are they still on the lam? Have the drones and explosives been found?
I've been laughing at people who claim that the assassination attempts were fake, but this is really out of bandwidth. Was there really a plot, or was it just some Stupids talking large on the internet?

... kinda never was valid. After all, countries like the US can already force Apple to comply to their will... and companies like Apple or Google have no motivation to admit that they are doing it. Mock trials can be arranged easily while, in the background, such cooperation is already happening.
Or to put it differently, Apple can already get at that data.
