The early days of the Internet were full of "information should be free" hackers, many of whom roam this very forum in their 40s, 50s, and 60s.
Well, information is free now. And this is what it looks like - consumed by LLMs. We got what we asked for.
- scrollaway 3y agoIndeed. There was no expectation of privacy on the internet at the time and THAT is exactly why it was standard to not communicate personal information you didn’t want to share. Pseudonymity carried onto the internet until the Facebook days. I am still firmly in the Information wants to be free camp, and I agree with you that LLMs scanning it is a logical continuation of it all.
