    Digital books that are protected by copyright can be altered by the publisher.  People were upset a few years ago when they discovered the digital books they had "bought" were altered afterwards. Even the ones they had already downloaded to their devices were altered by an update.  The publisher wanted to wokenize children's classics, like Matilda. The narrative of books in the public domain could be endangered if they are so rare that the original or originals are under lock and key. The Lewis and Clark journals were split up a long time ago among different institutions.  For years there were no available copies for the public.  Even today, the illustrations drawn in them are mostly unavailable. it is frustrating to read a reference to the illustration in the margin which isn't available. To see one, you must get permission to view in it person.  There is no copyright, but  you are bound by contract to pay royalties for each copy of an illustration you published in your book. This is how public domain books can be controlled. Put the surviving originals under lock and key and hold those who wants access over the barrel. I had wondered since Lewis and Clark was an official government expedition, could the Freedom of Information Act be used to make all content available to the public? Our Founding Fathers created the copyright to not only protect authors but also to ensure that after a time, the works would become public domain. This is to protect the works from disappearing into obscurity and the public access to them. The copyright allowed the author to collect royalties and his widow a reasonable time after his death to have an income. But corporations owning copyrights on works like Mickey Mouse pushed to extend the copyright to 70 years after the author's death. If it weren't for sites like the Internet Archive, many works would have already passed over into obscurity. Now because of AI training off of available online texts, publishers have become parano

    I mean yeah but also the united states is a lot bigger, you'd have to add up Europe and a few other countries

🤯😳😳 AI is getting more and more scary and dangerous. I hadn’t been paying much attention, but the rouge tendencies seem to be multiplying.

OR. it’s not a “money trail” —- Trump is a practical man. AI is coming whether or not we little people want it. By “pushing” it, he is determining who controls it … if we let it just develop - which it wail — no telling who will be in charge of the centers AND who will be programming them. Go back to the beginning of the industrial revolution and try to be the one stopping the proliferation of cars. You would lose that one, too. AI is coming. I want to see guardrails. Trump is incuding guardrails and not tying them into CBDC, which is what the Demonrats would do if they are in charge.

    What’s with the push for data centers though? He keeps saying there are communities that are calling for data centers. In reality the vast majority want moratoriums on building them, if not outright banning them in their area.

That should shed some light on why data centers are so necessary.

And, why so many of us are against them! There is NO need to save all that info on each of us! Total, TOTAL, 4th amendment violations!

      What a kettle of slop. Home values plummet. Stillborn calves. Wells run dry. The price of electricity skyrockets. As soon as it’s built, jobs dry up. Noise pollution up to 80 decibels continuously harms your hearing. The list goes on. Being “rich” doesn’t fix a one of those things.

Flock automated license plate reader networks create a serious constitutional privacy problem by continuously photographing vehicles, recording their locations and times, identifying distinctive characteristics such as bumper stickers and accessories, and storing and sharing that information so individual vehicles can be tracked over time. A Kansas lawsuit against Wichita challenges this surveillance under the Kansas Constitution's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, particularly because drivers are legally required to display license plates that can readily be connected to their identities. Flock's work for government agencies, placement of cameras on public property and government vehicles, and extensive law-enforcement use can make its surveillance functionally governmental rather than purely private. Traditional searches generally target particular people suspected of wrongdoing, while this technology enables government to accumulate location histories on virtually everyone without individualized suspicion, effectively transforming legally mandated license plates into persistent tracking identifiers. The constitutional issue extends beyond a camera observing something visible in public to the automated collection, analysis, retention, and aggregation of millions of observations into searchable records of people's movements. Technology has therefore transformed what once might have been an isolated observation of a license plate into the capacity for continuous mass surveillance, raising fundamental questions about whether government can maintain records of where ordinary citizens travel without warrants, probable cause, or suspicion of a crime. https://www.aei.org/technology-and-innovation/flock-camera-systems-may-face-a-constitutional-reckoning

6G is moving beyond faster wireless service toward Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC), allowing the same radio-frequency infrastructure that transmits data to function as a radar-like sensing network. European telecommunications standards acknowledge that 6G sensing may collect personally identifiable and sensitive information including location, movement patterns, gestures, gait, facial features and even heart rate, depending on how systems are configured. This raises serious privacy concerns because sensing could potentially detect and track people who are not actively using a connected device, including indoor or through-wall applications. Combined with AI, billions of Internet-of-Things devices, smart-city infrastructure, cameras and drones, 6G could provide the technological foundation for unprecedented population monitoring and behavioral tracking. The growing surveillance capability also revives concerns about government efforts to model society using massive real-time datasets, resembling the military's earlier concept of a continuously updated “Sentient World Simulation.” Policymakers should address privacy, consent, constitutional protections and limits on government and corporate surveillance before this infrastructure becomes ubiquitous, while independent research should continue examining potential health effects from expanding radio-frequency exposure. https://jeffereyjaxen.substack.com/p/6g-isnt-faster-internet-its-open

    What I don’t get is if they are admitting it can track you in your own home…how on earth is that constitutional? No. It can’t be. 😨
