What are good examples of concrete acts of resistance against "AI"? I am putting together an overview and am surely missing great stuff!

I have:
Data centre opposition (thx to @gerrymcgovern )
Examples of sabotage from @asrg
Some ideas about practical refusal from @danmcquillan

Also everyday acts are great (such as not following orders to use "AI") if they are documented somewhere, somehow. Most references tend to be rather vague (e.g. in this otherwise great article
https://restofworld.org/2026/techno-negative-thomas-dekeyser-fighting-ai/)

Why refusing AI is a fight for the soul

Author Thomas Dekeyser explains why modern resistance to Big Tech is a deeply sane response to a narrow vision of humanity.

AI is about as "cool" as a red MAGA hat.

Push that "uncool" AI image. because it is true and accurate and it hits. No one worth talking to is still MAGA. Anyone worth talking to, already hates them.

and educate. IRL and online, educate yourself, your friends, your co-workers,-- and, if you have kids, educate them, especially them.

Anti-AI talking points are not hard to find--use them.

Track, publicize and oppose new datacenters.
