Well, those are also not vehicles that the average citizen buys. They're specialized for their purpose, the fire truck needs to transport a decent amount of water and 4-5 people, and concrete is heavy stuff. But in a certain way they follow the same design philosophy.

Been to Japan lately and can share some photos. There are even Kei Fire Trucks, for the many small roads with wooden houses and shrines etc.

And then there are hundreds of different kei truck and van types for all purposes, even concrete mixers.

Also, private houses in cities are often small and space-saving and so are the cars. A sensible use of public space – and cars only park on private property or rented parking spaces.

Yep, and with access to the work files they not only can use final images for AI training but they have access to the complete background information like the different layers of an image.

That's not how AI learns.

But it's not a workaround. This Web-Filter is a function that Google offers by choice. It's in the menu on the search page.

Why should they? The Web-Filter is a function that Google implemented themselves. It's not a secret trick or something.

Correct. Amazon for example: everything that is sold via Amazon in Europe is taxed in Ireland. Even if a product which is available on Amazon is produced in France, stored in a French Amazon warehouse and shipped to a French customer. Just because it's possible, they pay the reduced taxes in Ireland for such a deal. That needs to be fixed.
