This is AI-written.
- Ten em-dashes
- "not just A, but B"
- wasn’t just a vacuum cleaner; it was a small computer on wheels
- they didn’t merely create a backdoor; they utilized it
- they hadn’t merely incorporated a remote control feature. They had used it to permanently disable my device
- incessant bullet points/markdown-style formatting
- And an overly dramatic/promotional tone
Obviously the image is AI as well, but /shrug

- adastra22 1y agoBecause using good typography and editing is not a unique fingerprint of AI generated content.
- astrange 1y agoAI's habit of writing every story as a bullet-point list really isn't a good writing style.

Which I’m not sure is such a bad thing—I presume the author used an AI to help them write the story, but the story is real. Or maybe they edited it themselves to make it sound more generic. Whatever the reason, the style takes away from my reading experience. It’s a blog post, I expect some personality!
