I become more and more weary about the absolutist moralizing. Yeah this CEO is nutty, but what I want from him is to protect the privacy of his customers. That is a precious good to us.
I especially mistrust the fuckai fanatics who want to burn down everything and everyone that has remotely to with AI no matter if it's reasonable or unreasonable. Their tactics are despicable and their strategy leads to unproductive outcomes for all.
Soon there will be no big VPN and privacy companies left and it will be easy to mop up what is left without resistance.
