Yes the moment the “article” framed modularity and replaceability as a problem it was clear for me that this is nothing else than product placement… Those things are features I would wish my car would have.

I was just thinking the other day… Someone should make a move from the Struwwelpeter Book. PEGI 18

The one with the M was the open source and federated one, correct?

From what I read technically “Android” is used as the most popular smartphone OS in China. But that’s only because android is the foundation of costume Chinese OS that comes without any google services (nice) but is also highly restricted against side loading. Of course like always ways should exist to workaround those restrictions.

But to be honest getting information about all the restrictions people in china need to suffer from getting harder l with every day since they get encapsulated more and more.

I don’t know if this was just a joke or you really mean it that way.

I would partially agree that there are a lot of similarities between Mao and Trump, but current situation in USA is nowhere near current situation in china.

I’m quite sure they will only allow this in EU (and maybe USA). If they do allow this in China, Regime will most probably ban every alternative app Store… if this is not already banned.

Thought and prayers to the people of china. I feel like they lost everything in 1989. Still hope they find the strength to get rid of this depressing system.

Exactly. ChatGPT is just the most prominent service using a LLM. Would be less concerned about the hype if all the free training data from thousand of users would go back into an open system.

Maybe AI is not stealing our jobs but if you get depending on it in order to keep doing your job competitive, it would be good if this is not controlled by a single company…

Did we mentioned that it is closed source proprietary service controlled by only one company that can dictate the terms of it’s usage?

And now they also have to pay back like 2 billion dollar of investor money… What sense does this make?

I do not understand how this should be interconnected. Why would the chat control law make Linux illegal? And isn’t this a completely different topic? OPs post was about “Cyber Resilience Act” and like zero_iq already explained Open Source software is explicitly excluded from this.

But beside this I thing the chat control law is a very bad idea that really need more focus in mainstream media.
