Clickbait. Google 'Directive 2023/970' for many better other articles A very amateur looking site too. Domain registered in 2023. Few Google references to the name. Can't handle HN load. The "About Us" contains a link to https://7bn.org/team https://7bn.org/team , which gives a Cloudflare error and https://7bn.org https://7bn.org returns a web hosting "Default Web Site Page" And 50 upvotes while the site isn't even loading? Hilarious

Looks like ML-generated garbage with multiple accounts driving "traffic". HN is heavily infested with ML-generated posts and what appears to be account botnets voting or commenting with LLM-generated output. Setting "showdead" to "yes" in HN profile settings is the red pill. I recently triggered[0] some LLM-based robot, by mentioning poor air quality in India in scope of reported cancer rates. You can read the first paragraph of all these "[dead]" responses and you'll get the pattern.

  Wow, thanks for posting that, it was seriously impressive and surreal. I mean, even if it was entirely some random Indian poster with no automated assistance, which is still more than plausible, that speaks to a pretty shocking amount of dedication to shit things up that I usually only see on imageboards. Then add in the obvious signs he tried to use AI at at least some stages, and that's where it gets actually wild to me, because if the posts were even slightly: - more coherent - less irrelevant - less duplicated - timed a bit further apart I can totally see most undiscerning readers never assuming that was all one person or arguably less than one person with automation.

Sadly the coordinated up- and down-voting has been on the increase here lately. Most humans who frequent HN will agree but watch my comment getting flagged in minutes.
