  • More and more lawyers are getting sactioned by courts because of these tools as new regulations and strict usage limits are starting to be implemented. Paper trail is critical in legal work and these tools often produce none or obfuscate it which makes the work inadmissible in court.

  • EU is complicit.

  • There are various licenses that do that, but by definition they are not open source. Those two things are mutually exclusive.

  • Of course. Companies have to comply with valid orders, but not every order is legally valid. In this case, neither of the VPN companies were ever valid parties over which court established jurisdiction, making the ruling technically void.

    Outside of that, in Proton case specifically, all foreign orders have to be recognised by a Swiss court to become enforceable. It's one of the claimed reasons for them incorporating the company in Switzerland in the first place.

  • <...> but this is absolutely valued research imo.

    How is stating the obvious for a millionth time which is already backed by multiple other studies of any value? Studies are not free and this is just a waste of money.

  • This is just another study that proves Chinese censorship regarding LLMs. There's ample evidence.

    Right, it's well known that authoritarian China censors what they consider "sensitive topics". So instead of another study that states what is established by their laws which anyone can read, a more useful study would be comparison of how different authoritarian countries approach the same issue.

    There is also ample evidence of US government by private or public pressure making US companies to self-censor their models around political or "national security" topics.

  • I don't think these type of comparisons achieve anything of value. It really feels like the study is trying to prove the desired result instead of trying to prove a blind hypethesis.

    More realistic comparison would be US-developed models answers for levels of censorship related to United States politics vs China-developed models answers for levels of censorship related to Chinese politics.

  • What a good question. Please do some research and learn the difference.

  • European Commission =/ Spain business court

  • Not true. Business courts only have jurisdiction over companies domiciled in Spain or wider-EU under certain circumstances. Neither ProtonVPN nor NordVPN are domiciled in Spain or EU.

    But even if we ignore that, the fact that the order issused inaudita parte is another procedural grounds to void the order.

  • The order is unenforcable. Spanish courts have no jurisdiction over companies registered in other countries. It's one of the most basic legal concepts, for order to be valid court must have jurisdiction over all parties.

  • I always prefer user created art, but since I have no artistic capabilities myself, LLM-generated is better than none to start with.

  • The level of overreach happening with courts lately is mind boggling.

  • Yes, learning how to commit war crimes is essential...

  • So they are fine being associated with Nazis? They don't see a conflict with their proclaimed values and goals? How can I trust that they mean anything they say when their actions in being on Nazi platform contradict that?

  • They remain popular. They were cut not because they lost popularity, but because nobody were willing to improve them and that then allowed racists to win and cut them. Most openly racist modern politician Trump campaigned on keeping all the social safety net programs because they were popular and are still popular, if someone would have campainged on expanding them they would have won instead.

    US has presidential term limits because racists were incapable of winning against popular policies back in the day.
