Comment on: Can An AI Generate Original Art? π¨βπ¨
Is it really obvious? I mean, are those shown examples truly original and by AI, if they are "compiled" from thousands of images and AI is directed by a human?

I really loved Firefox. In the days of "XUL addons", actual freedom. Mozilla didn't police what addon can be installed and which cannot (in current desktop Firefox you can't install and keep enabled an extension which is not cryptographically signed by Mozilla). Addons had access to everything, so many interesting things were done via them, a lot of custom GUI stuff.
Then "XUL addons" were thrashed, new crippled API implemented and suddenly Firefox felt like Chrome with their few limited extensions (compared to what FF used to have), only slower. Now I merely *use* Firefox even though I don't like it much. Main reason why I don't use Chrome (Chromium) as my main browser is I dislike Google even more.
I wish there was an alternative browser which continues where FF failed - with rich addon API and with open-source spirit (no authoritarian bs like Mozilla and Google are doing).

I used to use Gab, but after that anti-porn crusade on social media, I lost interest. Last thing I heard was they have a new UI and [visa banned them](https://news.gab.com/2020/06/26/social-credit-score-is-in-america-visa-blacklisted-my-business-and-my-family-for-building-gab/). I guess Torba is making too much noise, attracting too much attention. I am a bit worried if/when media starts smearing Ruqqus :/.

I don't know, it may seem like a good idea (provided it's not the *only* copy), but I am a bit uncomfortable giving tech giants so much power. They could exploit it at worst time.
Just look at the Gab case, a perfectly legal company (bit controversial I guess, but still legal), yet being banned by app stores, addon stores, web hostings, mail services, banks, payment processors and even by a card issuer.

Well, yes, but the majority of users will be oblivious to what AMP is beyond "it loads faster". I don't know, maybe I am a too big pessimist, but I fear people still don't care much about privacy/freedom until it affects them personally.

\*sigh\* Not again. And of course it's because of AMP, so they can spy (censor?) more...
