Iâ(TM)m old and not worried about giving up MacOS over this. Apple will add a cryptic CLI method for disabling this that normies wonâ(TM)t have a clue how to do themselves. As always, Iâ(TM)ll do whatever I want with my Macs and my kid wonâ(TM)t have a clue how to fuck up hers.

Don't suck a billionaire's dick and tell me it's a lollipop.

I explained what I was thinking in the prior comment.

So it sounds like you know specifically how they identified the user's CPU. What means was actually employed?

It's all been over since we got processors with microcode, which could have something like a TPM in them. I'm not saying all of them do or anything like that, only that any of them could.

If you really want a computer you can trust, you're going to have to get vintage about it.

No. Larry Ellison is a well known piece of shit. If you support him then fuck you too,b because you're also a piece of shit, just like everyone who voted for the orange child rapist.

This looks like the final cell-phonification of the Mac. I'm bummed.

But they're right - if you assume that a significant fraction of Mac users are going to install some sort of third-party interface with an LLM, it is either significantly extend and harden the security perimeter deeper into the OS or your customers will routinely have everything exfiled as a matter of course, and it would just be cheaper to make iCloud into an anonymous FTP site.

And given Zuckerbook's demonstrated willingness to brazenly, actively subvert OSes, I'm willing to bet they're going to go Russian on their subjects, er, customers, anyway. ("You probe with bayonets: if you find mush, you push.")

It will probably be what finally pushes me to a Linux laptop, though. I'm old, I spend a lot of time at the shell. I like Macs because they're great unix workstations, still. But I don't see how you can accommodate both people like me and people who need to be protected not only from themselves, but from Zuckerbook and worse.

And they're a much bigger market than people like me. And "AI is the Footure."

IME it mostly works now. It's always slow and stupid and the UI is crap, but most of the features work most of the time

No, most people do not have a motherboard TPM, it's in the CPU.

Spying is a primary use of AI and it makes spying on more people more feasible.

It's the rapeublicans who are raping children. Literally marrying children so they can rape them.

Did not read your defense of child rape

Wading through the garbage, one does find a few gems from time to time. Not unfounded rumours, but verified stories with links to sources that the regular newspapers do not print for some reason, or discussions and opinions outside of your own bubble. And it becomes clear how much of a bubble mainstream publications have become. Or maybe they always were...

Hahahahhahahahhah

You claim scientists' predictions were wrong then cite as evidence things which were never mainstream views

You really are a coward

It's already the law at it's willful negligence, so the issue is enforcing existing law, not creating new.

But we won't do that either.

Surely some of these groups will be run by people stupid enough to help us do a fraud!
