  • Yeah, it’s bad. Surprised they’re still serving that crap in their own bundle but i guess some things don’t change.

    Filezilla is no relation to mozilla. But yeah i moved away from it years ago. The general recommendation I’ve seen is “anything but filezilla”. Personally i use winscp for windows, and will have to figure out what to use when i switch my daily driver to Linux.








  • Its not any different than how it already was. Initially the GenAI models were all being trained on masses of unlicensed data including data from reddit. The problem is some companies like New York Times are suing for training an LLM off of their data. So in response companies like OpenAI are now trying to reach partnerships that basically license the use of the data (that they already had). This also means that they will be able to continue to have future access to that data as long as the partnership is in place. Whereas some companies without a partnership could start to ban scraping activity or update their terms to forbid training AI off of their data.

    Overall these partnerships are a good thing. Licensed training data is good. But from a privacy standpoint, the AI models were already trained on reddit data. This is just formalizing the relationship












  • Essentially. Police or anyone could report an account for illegal activity which is against ToS for all three of the services. From there the service would need to be able to substantiate the claim and then shut down the account. I’ve seen a few cases of proton accounts getting shut down. Proton can’t read emails but they can read headers and if you’ve posted illegal activity in public using your proton email address or if law enforcement/ someone reports you for using proton for illegal activity then proton will be able to review headers to determine if you’re violating ToS. Like a few years ago i think someone was using proton for ransomware, and proton was able to match the headers with emails that had been posted in public, and acct got shut down.

    Unfortunately can’t find that specific case but that was one example I’ve seen
