Yeah that sounds about right - VST is such an awful standard, and is only made worse by all the copy protection nonsense that companies pile on top of it. I wish there was an open standard that was cross-platform, portable and used PGP encryption for standard licencing, but alas, it's too late for that.
How has he not been booted as CEO yet? If I was a shareholder I'd be pissed.
This doesn’t mean that Meta denies using shadow libraries, its argument is that using such data to train its LLM models constitutes fair use under U.S. copyright law.
Oh wow, I'm very much looking forward to this argument... "We believe pirating the copyrighted commercial works of others en masse to develop our own commercial product constitutes fair use... China bad!"

This reminds me of the time the Zoom CEO announced he wanted employees back in the office because remote work wasn't as effective. It's easy to assume the people running these companies are competent...
robots.txt is the perfect summary of the web era. A plain text file that politely asked web crawlers not to do certain things. Such an innocent time.
Wow, it's pretty wild they didn't even attempt to encrypt or protect this data, even if it is local to your machine. What a treasure trove for malware to sift through.
A new deal is being forged with 4chan instead.
The author had so many things to highlight that they didn't even mention "as of August 2024" being in the future, haha.
What a trainwreck. The fact it's giving anonymous Reddit comments and The Onion articles equal consideration with other sites is hilarious. If they're going to keep this, they need it to cite its sources at a bare minimum. Can't wait for this AI investor hype to die down.
Would love to see the same tests with an adblocker installed.
That's an antitrust case if ever I saw one.

35 years! It's almost unheard of to be at a single game company for so long.
