Until there’s real civil liabilities around how companies use and share data there will never be an economic reason for any company to respect their consumers. When the data is worth more than the core business, the equilibrium is completel

Is YC seriously still invested in this trash?

Providing kickbacks to the repos being scraped would be a good way to help fund open source projects and pay creators like streaming services do. Seems like they're headed in this direction - it would be a massive product differentiato

It seems a bit ridiculous but there’s definitely something here. I have been really enjoying building similar single-file prototypes with agents. They seem to have no trouble dealing with all the code being piled in one big file and you can
