It sort of is though. At least it gets them the same protections as LEOs, but allows them to avoid some of the restrictions and oversight that LEOs are supposed to have. Pretty shady business.

It hasn't been established that it's a problem though. The article seems to indicate that it's not.

And you still can, just don't update it with Sony's patch. But that's not why Dude quit. He wanted everyone to keep their mouths shut until after GTA 6 launched, so that people could download the game while the exploit still existed. Which would have allowed them to rip the game. But since Sony pushed a patch, you can't get the game when it releases using an unpatched system.

We don't know what that field is "supposed" to be used for, we're just guessing. I'd be willing to bet that it's not properly "officially" documented.

Gamer Nexus has been kind of disingenuous about the whole thing. As in, showing the response on screen where LG claims the audio stuff is Opt-In but intentionally skipping over it and never actually showing a test on a TV where they have not specifically enabled the audio features. Well, no shit it's listening when you turn that feature on. Not that I trust LG in the slightest, they're scum, but this whole affair smells like it's mostly manufactured outrage and not some massive "scoop."

The GDPR has serious jurisdictional boundary issues. People in the EU need to understand that anything outside of their own country is "use at your own risk" if there's not a formal legal agreement (treaties, etc.) and to stop trying to push their local regulations globally.

If any of your accounts ever receives a ban, then posting under any of them is considered "circumventing" the ban and grounds for removal. As for damages, good luck. Under US law you have to actually prove damages, which are zero. I don't know if reddit has any legal presence in the UK or not, that's most likely the only chance you have of getting anywhere with them. The biggest issue with reddit is that random mods in subs can basically kick you off the entire site by reporting posts as general reddit rule violations. I quit using the site a few years ago after a mod in a sub got mad at a post I made, and went and reported posts I had left in a FPS video game sub as "inciting or encouraging violence." I of course appealed but it was determined that the posts still violated the site policy.

"I'm more than happy to do that for you. I've installed our AI Agent onto your phone, so you can just talk to us Live anytime you want without even dialing a number."

They're counting on sales boost from GTA 6. Also, rumors on upcoming console generations have gone from "probably 2027" to "might start seeing early Dev prototypes by end of 2027 and consumer launches in 28 or 29."

You? Hahaha no, they are the ones who want to run AI on your phone.

This post reads like it was written by a Fae

And I'm sure this move has absolutely nothing to do with the upcoming GTA6 release this fall.

Call me nuts, but how about they just take my Doctor's word for me needing a refill of the medication?

No. The job problems are not because of AI. The "replaced by AI" is an excuse the Suits are using to distract from the actual reasons why hiring has stalled and layoffs are picking up.
