The article seems verbose, my rules are simpler... No adtech, no gambling, no cryptocurrency, no stealing people's content to regurgitate it (LLM/genai), no killing people with my code...
- martijnvds 2y agoI'd add "tracking people's private information just to sell it" to that list.
- mortb 2y agoThis is interesting. How does AI stuff fit in this list? All AI stuff uses data that has been gathered without conscious consent and the resulting models may be used in malicious ways. How should we stand on that?

They took specific steps and deliberate care to avoid that some poor sysadmin in their target country would be thrown in jail or worse for their access. Sounded almost like the technical equivalent of WW2 resistance fighters in France, Norway etc., using British uniforms to avoid reprisals against the civpop.
- throwawayffffas 2y agoI am even more terse, no scamming people, no stealing.
- phoronixrly 2y agoI mean... Not doing illegal stuff is kinda by default?
- Delphiza 2y agoI also have the tobacco industry on my list. (they also own the nicotine addiction vaping industry).
