By "shadowy cabal of European media elites," is Prince referring to elected Italian officials? What have they asked Cloudflare to ban?


No. To private entities (news outlets) who, according to this law, get to decide what websites to ban without a court order or any due process


The exact same thing is implemented in Germany already (DNS-level block), and I did not see Cloudflare CEO rage posting on Twitter about it.


"you must block things in germany after it goes through a formal government process" versus "you must block things globally even for places not subject to italian law because an italian media company doesn't like it"

There's more than a subtle difference betweeen the two.


Has Germany tried to fine Cloudflare over it?


Because the German law only harms Germans, whereas the Italian law in question demands global bans.


I'm in Germany and Cloudflare DNS doesn't Block eg Annas Archive for me, while my ISP does. I also don't reckon Germany tried to fine Cloudflare yet. So what is your point?


The driving force behind this is getting pirated streams of football matches knocked offline. Currently by the time any action is taken the match is over, which is why they want the response-within-30-minutes.


This is about football streaming, the cabal media elites are right holders fighting illegal streams, which 1.1.1.1 bypasses even if filters are put at the ISP level.


Is there a way, perhaps via extension or user script, to override third-party keystroke event listeners?

I contacted the author, she said because no-one respects it, she hasn't even tried.


Not like anyone respects that anyways.


Also, I wanted tldrbot to summarize this page. /s


That's a good point. It's not a black and white issue.

I personally see a bot working on behalf of an end user differently than OpenAI hoovering up every bit of text they can find to build something they can sell. I'd guess the owner of localghost.dev doesn't have a problem with somebody using a screen reader because although it's a machine pulling the content, it's for a specific person and is being pulled because they requested it.

If the people making LLM's were more ethical, they would respect a Creative Commons-type license that could specify these nuances.


You can append -ai to your searches to omit AI Overview replies. It's not enough but it's something.


Just add "fucking" to the end of your query and that works too.


If they just put a checkbox by the search bar that keeps state, I wonder what percent would uncheck it.


I think you'd be surprised at how many users don't click on any settings whatsoever regardless of what they do.


In most of San Francisco and parts of the East Bay, there's MonkeyBrains: https://www.monkeybrains.net/


Does Monkeybrains offer fiber now ?

I have been a customer for 14 years now. Would love to move to higher bandwidth.

So...an effort to commercialize open source?


Seems like its more trouble than just appending .patch to a commit.
