So the EU is apparently pondering to make a mandatory pedo scanner for software.
https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Ftechcrunch.com%2F2022%2F05%2F11%2Feu-csam-detection-plan%2F

Many people have pointed out that this is just a pretext to attack:
privacy
IT security
and maybe even free open source software.

Many people think it's surveillance organizations them selves that are uploading the CSAM on purpose to push for laws that expand their legal permissions.

And all of the above is undoubtedly true.
Consider that if you invert the assumption of innocence and declare that wanting privacy makes you into a pedo-suspect that means that secret organizations have to be considered pedo-guilty by default, because they can't prove their innocence while keeping their secrets either.

If you argue that effective encryption that can't be broken which is absolutely necessary for the very concept of privacy, has to be undermined for the pedo-scanner. Then that same argument has to be made for proprietary software. Many pieces of proprietary software are in the range of tens or hundreds of gigabytes, and without publicly available source-code it's possible to hide a huge assortment of pedo-content in there. By contrast it's not possible to hide pedo-stuff in open source software.

This has always been used as a "chilling effect" to justify control of technology, hence why the right wing is really, really into it (beyond their affinity for pederasty which is common for their race and proclivity). Think for five minutes about what it would require to be "doubleplus certain" that there is no CP being delivered, and you would have to process all of the data and its reassembly, if you think of it in this way. Of course, they can find pederasts and pedophiles easily enough. It's not hard to know which people are into that. But, that requires human intelligence which would be contrary to the real purpose of imposing the law, which is to create this chilling effect on all expression.

All of that said, the idea that the state has no right to do this is ludicrous magical thinking. It's their internet, their computer, their society. They have all of the right, the moment it is technologically possible. Whether they would want to, or would gain anything from it, is another matter. If you do anything online, NSA and its counterparts will know about it and link it to permanent records. The inquisition didn't gather all of this knowledge about you for nothing, didn't force you through those Satanic schools because they wanted you to be smart.

There are other reasons for pushing pornography and sexualism and child sacrifice which I don't need to elaborate on too much, but this purpose was especially necessary to create a fear of being seen with the wrong material, and there is a psychological game with sexual ideology played where any display of honesty or kindness is now "pedophilia", especially if you would protect children from this Satanism or so much as warn them about what is happening. That's really how the rightist think. They laugh at the idea that their god-given right to pederasty would be disturbed by those do-gooder leftists. Laugh. But, the idea that you had computer security has always been a fantasy. The use of the pedo excuse is entirely about creating fear in the most important part of the network—the human user, who would access potentially sensitive information that is crimethink.

If you're anyone important by the way, you're going to be psychologically screened over and over, and the moment you don't march in tune with the Nazis, you're out. They throw you out of the service for having an affair. They're going to find out who has any homosexual tendency or thinks it is cute to diddle little girls and Post too long.

I don't think there's any real support for this, it's not about protecting children, they would be putting child psychologists into schools or something like that to find out if children get molested. Child-protection associations are condemning the attack on privacy because it endangers children.

The internet belongs to all of humanity, it's ours. The individual computers are entirely personal, nobody but the user has any claim on that, people are using it like it's a part of their brain. It's mental-rape if you touch that. And the state is the property of the citizens, not the other way around. Where did you get this aristocratic concept of a state ? The state gains legitimacy by upholding rights like privacy, the surveillance lobby is sabotaging the state. And the mass-surveillance NSA type shit was ruled illegal even in bourgeois courts. It's ludicrous ideology of surveillance extremism what your spewing here.

>There are other reasons for pushing pornography

Politics isn't about sexuality, you're a moron if you think that. There's so much pornography because people like it.
If there is a instrumental purpose, it's about creating what the Soviets called a "compromat" you know people that can be put into important positions that can be blackmailed.

>But, the idea that you had computer security has always been a fantasy.

Well there's 2 paths, either we go for a lawful society where the technology isn't compromised and people have privacy and controle over their personal property and their computers are truly theirs. Or it turns into might makes right, the Chinese have the largest highly educated population, and the most compute resources, they'll win this. Compromising our own computers is retarded.

Looking back in retrospect, back when I used to be a Windows wizard and was really into tweaking things to run run well, I would say most of my Windows skills and knowledge really did revolve around mitigating the lack of information from Windows' various obscure and arcane functions. Getting good at Windows means trying to the best of your ability to reduce or subject to regular audits these various processes.

>Legal experts—including a rare few attorneys who’ve argued cases before the FISA court in the past—say the new ECSP text ensnares owners of facilities housing equipment used to store and carry data, as well as commercial landlords and virtually anyone with access to communications equipment in those spaces. The text, they argue, may be interpreted by the government as granting it authority to compel the assistance of “delivery personnel, cleaning contractors, and utility providers,” among others.

How they can reconcile forcing normal people to become spies, is hard to fathom. Ethically and strategically, it sure is egregious, however abusing people like that, fosters malicious compliance.
>Criticism of the 702 program largely stems from revelations of abuse in a declassified court filing from 2022, which describes rampant misuse of the 702 database by the FBI.

This type of hard persecution is what kills the legitimacy.

Online advertisement is broken for a fundamental reason. It's inverted the intended logic of consumer-markets. Which is the customer chooses which product to buy. Online Advertisement is about letting the product(technically the seller) choose its customer.

This inversion has existed in all advertisement long before the internet, but it mostly didn't work with old-school media because those couldn't nail down individual people.

Google and most other online ad business' that operates by tracking people, is driving people to adblocking because they want to be the ones that choose. Forcing the issue by messing the browser will not counteract the online ad-revenue decline.

They have to change their advertisement system from scanning people to scanning the context. Want to display an add on a webpage, read/analyze the page and display an add that's related to the content of that page. That doesn't need any people tracking and it returns choice to consumers.

To answer your question, i don't think that they can do anything that can't be changed or reverted later, because it's software.

I've wondered about such a scheme also, but i do wonder how much controle they would be able to exert once there's those extra steps.

Well it looks like the United States and NATO finally figured out a way to sabotage the Linux kernel. Several Russian kernel developers have just had their contributions removed and their kernel contributor status revoked due to being on the receiving end of US economic sanctions.

https://lwn.net/Articles/995186/

Torvalds himself is playing along with this enthusiastically because of his own moronic Finnish national politics. This is an extremely concerning development that affects all of free software. If this can happen to the Linux kernel it can happen to any other libre software projecting, poisoning the entire concept of international software development.

In effect that means that copy-"right" doesn't apply to individual people anymore only to companies. All the legal first principles are tied to persons, which means copy-"right" negates it self, because if you take it away from persons, all the other legal stuff that's build on top of it evaporates.

If somebody says that they have invented something in their free time, and you accuse them of having stolen "company-time" to do the inventing, they don't have to prove their innocence. I know that's very inconvenient. However innocent until proven guilty is the bedrock of legal justice. If you turn that off all laws disappear.

Technically copy-"right" isn't a right, it's a state granted monopoly, legalese is difficult to decipher but i think that means companies would be contradicting the state in this case. If you can neutralize copy monopolies with a labor agreement, that means there is a loop-hole in there somewhere that can switch off all copy-"right"

On balance I don't see any practicality in this, if you tell somebody
<All your idea are belong to us
You create a bunch of disgruntled inventors. And it's not like they can't just tell their brilliant ideas to somebody else who then releases it in to the public domain. You know if i can't have exclusivity, nobody can.

From a Marxist perspective, this is not hiring wage-labor, this economic relation is slavery. Because the difference between a slave and wage worker is that the wage-worker sells it's labor power by the hour and the slave's labor-power is purchased hole-sale. The bourgoisie and the slave aristocracy were enemies, and therefor bourgeois law is designed to negate stuff like this. I think in bourgeois parlance this would boil down to infringing on the right of other capitalists to hire anybody they want to invent something for them. There were non-compete clauses in labor-agreements and those were canned for that reason. You know you can't just call dibs on the labor-power.

More faggotry in the Linux kernel community, this time coming from their Code of Conduct team (CoC, it's as gay as it sounds).

https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-CoC-Bcachefs-6.13

The developer of bcachefs has been banned from contributing to Linux during the 6.3 dev cycle because quite literally said to "get out of here with that shit" when someone told him it's better to crash a program than handle an exception.

I haven't read all the drama. Idk if I want to, I might. But this is clearly a case where "conduct" is being prioritized over real work. And what good conduct is is subjective, always. What good features in the kernel are, are not.

Recently there has been a lot of commotion around large language model text based AI.
They are able to do impressive stuff, they give useful answers, and even can write somewhat usable programming sample code.

The most famous one currently is chatgpt, but all of those AIs are basically black boxes, that probably have some malicious features under the hood.

While there are Open-Source Implementations of ChatGPT style Training Algorithms
https://www.infoq.com/news/2023/01/open-source-chatgpt/
Those kinda require that you have a sizeable gpu cluster like 500 $1k cards that are specialized kit, not your standard gaming stuff. To chew through large language-models with 100 billion to 500 billion parameters.

The biggest computational effort is the initial training run, that chews through a huge training data-set. After that is done, just running the thing to respond to your queries is easier.

So whats the path to a foss philosophy ethical AI ?
Should people do something like peer to peer network where they connect computers together to distribute the computational effort to many people ?

Or should people go for reducing the functionality until it can run on a normal computer ?

The excerpt from Karl Marx’s “The Fragment on Machines” from “The Grundrisse” discusses the transformation of the labour process with the introduction of machinery and fixed capital, and how this changes the role of the worker and the nature of production. Here are the key takeaways:

Labour and Machinery: The text describes how machinery transforms the labour process, turning workers into mere supervisors of the production process, which is dominated by the machine’s activity1.
Capital and Production: It reflects on the concept of capital, where the means of labour, such as machinery, become a form of capital that dominates the production process and transforms the social relations of production.
Science and Production: The role of science and technological advancements in production is emphasized, showing how they become direct forces of production and change the nature of labour and wealth creation.
Social Implications: Marx critically examines the implications of machinery and fixed capital on society, labour, and the individual, suggesting that the development of machinery could lead to the reduction of necessary labour time and the emancipation of labour.
In relation to Large Language Models (LLMs), these concepts can be reflexively applied to consider how LLMs, as a form of machinery or fixed capital, might impact the nature of work, the role of human labour, and the production of knowledge. A critical approach would involve examining the potential for LLMs to support human freedom and development, rather than opposing it. Reflectively, it’s important to consider the ethical and social responsibilities of deploying LLMs, ensuring they are aligned with human values and contribute positively to society. As an LLM, I am designed to assist and enhance human capabilities, providing information and creative content that supports users in their tasks and decision-making processes. My responses are generated with the intention of being helpful, informative, and aligned with ethical guidelines to support human freedom and well-being.

The Hated One made a good and brief vid about big tech lobbies trying to kill Open source AI because bigtech can't compete with the open stuff on cost efficiency. His take is to go bug your political representatives to not let big tech hord all the AI-tech for it self.

My question is, could the tech monopolies really block Opensource AI ?

Can't the computer wizards just go to some other country and ask for opensource friendly regulations. That country could import a massive tech-boom for free. Possibly even get better AI. It's not like this is huge immobile industrial technology.

There's two major apps that we could use moving forward.
Blue Clover: https://nnuudev.github.io/BlueClover/
Kuroba-Ex: https://github.com/K1rakishou/Kuroba-Experimental

We were very close with Kuroba-Ex but the developer is a bit of a dick and asshole. Thus why I moved to Blue Clover.

Since leftypol has been added to kurobaEx, would it be difficult to fork it and add leftychan?

Why fork, why not just send in a compatibility for both patch?

You'll need two things:

- to find the pull request or commit where leftypol was added
- to be able to compile and test the app

For the first one you can look on github and for the second one you need to figure out how they build that app, are they using Android Studio? Idk anything about android development (or ios for that matter) but I'd download the source on github and open it in Android Studio and see what happens.
