You'll have to kill me first. No way in good Satan's Hell will pedophiles put their software on my computer. Eat dick bitch.

Legislators have no idea how technical stuff works. Imagine imposing this requirement on a Raspberry Pi, which has no document scanner or webcam to scan your Government Approved ID or Unique Human Face. Either the device has to be mandated to include a camera or some other similar bullshit, or it doesn’t have a way to scan your face or ID. So it would be noncompliant by default, but if you could mandate a camera is included, then you’d have to mandate that it requires the scan and gatekeeps the operation of the device without it, and so on… just a bunch of ridiculous bullshit.

You are still acting under the assumption that we will be allowed purchase our own hardware like a Raspberry Pi, or some stick of RAM to upgrade our desktop PC.

They want us on dumb terminals like in WallE, consuming the content they want us to see, and squashing the inconvenient truths they don’t like.

Does your little Blueberry cake or whatever have Microsoft SecureBoot Copilot Plus? No? It’s ILLEGAL and you can go to JAIL for having it! SURRENDER TO THE AI DRONE NOW.

The real problem is that I’m not being hyperbolic.

Well they can try to do that but it won’t work. I already have at least 4 Raspberry Pis, and who knows how many other computers could be lurking around.

They’ll just end up like any other form of draconian prohibition - black markets everywhere. Even my grandpa knew a bootlegger in small town USA where alcohol was illegal.

“Sir, do you have any Raspberry Pi’s in the vehicle?”

Every new car these days is a computer first, so don’t worry, it’ll already have all of your personal information if you’re interested in driving it.
And classic cars with carburetors and naturally aspirated engines will be illegal too.

This. And with the mumblings of autonomous AI kill bots it would be next to nothing in a decade or so for them to detect non-compliant networked devices. Everything already tries to map your network. Imagine you have a degoogled phone and some robocop detects it and arrests you because you have a suspicious device.

The autonomous robot thing freaks me the fuck out. Imagine a cop that could access your phone and listen to your conversations, track you in real time and never get tired. If that happens it’s game over. It’s not happening this year, but in 5 years? With how much money they are dumping into the industry?

They don’t care if the country collapses. They’re designing the next one.

The thing about “autonomous AI” is that it isn’t what the current “AI” companies are researching. The money is all being dumped into LLM companies, and LLMs aren’t a likely way to get fully autonomous robots.

I’m not saying that it isn’t going to happen, especially because they exist somewhat already (especially drones). However, when people think “dumping money into the AI industry”, most are thinking of OpenAI, Anthropic and the like, especially since that is actually where the majority of money (and power) is going.

If you are internet savvy you could be impressed into cyber attacks, as is common in many countries when criminals and pirates are identified, their intelligence agencies will bail them out to work for them. ie Russia, china, maybe the us already idk.
