I hate patent trolls, but I will say "it couldn't have happened to a nicer company". I hope they both go broke on legal fees.

Misread that as "cat" and thought I was in for a cute satire, not a boring dystopia.

Thanks for your comment. I usually travel alone and was like "why would anyone subject themselves to AirBNB." I appreciate the context and perspective.

Not at all! I had to use ID.me for unemployment and it skeeved me out too.

They're working to improve login.gov to support the level of user verification needed for this service, but it isn't there yet. Hopefully next year when tax time rolls around again.

It should be illegal to use an AI in the hiring process that can't explain its decisions accurately. There's too much of a risk of bias in training data to empower a black box system. ChatGPT can lie, so anything powered by it is out.

Seems like you're asserting that the article is sponsored content without being disclosed, in violation of FTC guidelines. Seems like a pretty serious claim that borders on libel. Do you have any proof of your allegations?

The people who make up the 2% market share using Firefox overlaps with the people tired of AI - specifically LLMs - being shoved into everything.

Mozilla just released a LLM-driven website generator a few months ago. Why are we assuming they won't add something similar to Firefox?

If Mozilla wants to use machine learning, awesome. But how about we treat the techies who support them like adults and say "machine learning" instead of using the AI buzzword which is overloaded.

NewEgg is such a shell of its former self. They went from fighting patent trolls to platforming scammers.

While we resourced mozilla.social heavily to pursue this ambitious idea,

How many people do you need to administer a Mastodon instance? I'm pretty sure infosec.exchange is like one dude.

I doubt most people know that country TLDs are different from vanity TLDs. I know when I look up domains, they're usually all smooshed together and then the terms are in a giant block of ToS.
