Why?? Please make this make sense. Having AI to help with coding is ideal and the greatest immediate use case probably. The web is an open resource. Why die on this stupid hill instead of advocating for a privacy argument that actually matters?

Edit: Okay got it. Hinder significant human progress because a company I don't like might make some more money from something I said in public, which has been a thing literally forever. You guys really lack a lot of life skills about how the world really works huh?

Why do people roll coal? Why do vandalize electric car chargers? Why do people tie ropes across bike lanes?

Because a changing world is scary and people lash out at new things.

The coal rollers think they're fighting a vallient fight against evil corporations too, they invested their effort into being a car guy and it doesn't feel fair that things are changing so they want to hurt people benefitting from the new tech.

The deeper I get into this platform the more I realize the guise of being 'progressive, left, privacy-conscious, tech inclined' is literally the opposite.
