  • I found the intro hook intriguing, but the reporting starts with a lot of media clips and other run-ups, which eventually made me leave.

    It’s great they put in so much effort into genuine, on-site reporting, but the already long video report feels even more bloated/filled this way.

    I have to wonder if the DMCA was due to the news clips. While they may be fair use for contextualized reporting, I didn’t find them particularly valuable, and DMCA issues could have been avoided without them or without using so many of them.




  • for example, “have seen revenues jump from zero to $20 million in a year,” he said. “It’s because they pick one pain point, execute well, and partner smartly with companies who use their tools,” he added.

    Sounds like they were able to sell their AI services. That doesn’t really measure AI success, only product market success.

    Celebrating a revenue jump from zero, presumably because they did not exist before, is… quite surprising. It’s not like they became more efficient thanks to AI.




  • DNS is a listing of address resolution. Ignoring/Dropping records is not modifying existing entries/mappings. That’s a different thing in my eyes.

    If the ruling were to declare published content must not be modified, I think there’s multiple levels to it too, and it may dictate to any degree between them.

    1. Interpretative tools (like a screen reader would be, or forced high contrast mode), which may be classified accessibility too
    2. CSS hacks that change display style but not what is shown (for example forcing a dark mode, reduced spacing, or bigger font sizes)
    3. CSS hacks or ad blockers that modify or hide content (block ads that would otherwise be rendered)

    The biggest danger for a “copyright violation” would be the last point. Given that styling is part of the website though, “injection with intent to modify” may very well be part of it too, though.

    It certainly would go directly against the open web with all of its advantages.

    /edit: Comment by manxu, who read the ruling, is a lot less alarming.
