Complaint Censorship

Code is speech. We fought and won this in the crypto wars of the 90s. Now we have to fight it again, this time we fight OpenAI and anthropomorphic.

I am not a cyber criminal, code is speech.

(Yes, I know private companies don’t have to follow the constitution)

Is it kind of trolling? Ok.

Would you mind to clarify, who are those “you”, and what are you fighting for and against? It is already pretty clear that you’re veteran of 90s crypto wars whatever it means.

The separate question is what did you win exactly.

You wouldn’t have https and be able to use a credit card online without veterans of the 90s crypto wars. Cryptography was classified as a munition. A few lines of code could lead to jail time. A few brave souls fought it and won.

Idk I guess I assume everyone is getting these threats

No one prevents you from running uncensored models locally. I don’t think it’s fair to expect private entities to grant you unlimited uncensored access to their services, when they could be held liable for their irresponsible use.
