I'd like to clarify that removing DRM does lie in a grey zone in many countries, including in the US due to some court rulings. In some countries the right to make a backup of your e-book might have priority over copyright law for example.
Interesting to see arrests still happening towards private trackers. I wonder how the Nordics fares nowadays when it comes to being the Mecca of filesharing, feels like the golden days have passed since long ago.
I'd say a fair idea is to host your own personal website with your resume, if you're capable and/or want to learn. There are often examples you can base your portfolio on.
I do not know about this specific case, but many cracked copies are true false-positives. Only 28/74 flagged it as malicious. Sure, do your due diligence, but in general it'll be picked by antiviruses as malware.
If you don't read the article, this sounds worse than it is. I think this is the important part:
ChatGPT's persuasion performance is still short of the 95th percentile that OpenAI would consider "clear superhuman performance," a term that conjures up images of an ultra-persuasive AI convincing a military general to launch nuclear weapons or something. It's important to remember, though, that this evaluation is all relative to a random response from among the hundreds of thousands posted by everyday Redditors using the ChangeMyView subreddit. If that random Redditor's response ranked as a "1" and the AI's response ranked as a "2," that would be considered a success for the AI, even though neither response was all that persuasive.
OpenAI's current persuasion test fails to measure how often human readers were actually spurred to change their minds by a ChatGPT-written argument, a high bar that might actually merit the "superhuman" adjective. It also fails to measure whether even the most effective AI-written arguments are persuading users to abandon deeply held beliefs or simply changing minds regarding trivialities like whether a hot dog is a sandwich.
At the same time, China is a more united place than Europe which consists of various countries with their own economy and culture. And to be fair, some countries have had their fair share of tech giants, like Spotify, Klarna or Ericsson from Sweden for example.
I didn't see anything about the implications of this on the EU and GDPR?
It seems weird FBI would post misinformation regarding how "they" are spending the money
Endless growth will kill us all. I can't tell you how much I detest these "concerns".
I really dislike this argument. Just because it's "their country, their rules" doesn't not make it an issue? Especially when it comes to privacy concerns. Privacy concerns are universal. There are a plethora of serious issues that are not defended by "national sovereignty". If that was the case we should just turn a blind eye to North Korea, right?
No one ever questions these things. "It's for the kids!" is the one argument that'll lead us all to damnation.
It's better to pay for a VPN provider that is verified to work in China. And no, they won't kidnap you for using a VPN as some people write here. It's a non-issue just to bypass the GFW. The issue is when you write to a Chinese audience things that the CCP do not like.
