Yeah, can make some products better but most of the products these days that use AI, it doesn't actually need them. It's annoying to use products that actively shovel AI when it doesn't even need it.

Yeah, if you can afford it. Buy it. If you can't, no harm in pirating it. Applies to almost everything.

But I see no evidence that an organized effort took place.

Reddit blackout protest clearly made us understand that if we do any sort of resistance against them they don't think twice replacing the current mods with new ones even if that can affect the subreddit. At this point, they see Reddit as a cash cow and not a people's forum. If they didn't, we wouldn't be speaking here in lemmy.

yeah, as long as you don't specifically point to a copyright infringing content things will be fine. that's why all piracy related subreddits are still not taken down.

This was stated in their official announcement.

In the upcoming days:

• Our core GitHub repositories will be taken down.
• The official social media accounts will be closed.
• The official Discord server will be repurposed into a general community for those who are interested in staying.

I don't think irc and usenet is dead. It's still used a lot for piracy.
