It’s “many” like in “Many people on twitter are saying…” i.e. they found 3 or 4 people saying crazy shit and acted like it was a big thing.

LinkedIn’s blog post on this isn’t at all apologetic, just “the privacy policy already let us do this but we’ve updated it to be clearer.” I was expecting them to say something accidentally went live early or there was some other mistake. Nope, it’s all according to plan. Fuck you LinkedIn.
It’s more about spite at this point
I deleted my account when I discovered that bullshit. LinkedIn’s new opt-out AI data gobbling has me this close to deleting that account too.
Edit: Fuck it, I just saw Ars’ article with LinkedIn’s response. Bye bye LinkedIn account.
How do you know when to stop wiping?
The ribbon was introduced in Office 2007. The backsliding started a long time ago.
The terms of service have now been updated, but ordinarily that occurs well before a big change like using user data for a new purpose like this. The idea is it gives users an option to make account changes or leave the platform if they don’t like the changes. Not this time, it seems.
They should be required to delete their training data and start over after people have had a chance to opt in.
This isn’t just in the US; I’ve got the setting in Canada and I’d assume it’s in just about any country where LinkedIn is available that isn’t on the very short list of exceptions.
To sell a game outside Apple’s App Store, developers must effectively pay a 50 euro cent per user per year installation fee once they reach a certain number of downloads. If developers want to link users to purchases outside the app, they’ll also need to fork out a 10 percent commission on all sales made “on any platform” — including outside of iOS. That’s on top of a 5 percent commission on purchases made within one year of the app’s installation. Then, they’d have to pay any fees charged by the operator of the new marketplace. In Epic’s case, that’s 12 percent — a significant discount on its own, but a major addition once you factor in Apple’s costs.
Checking Apple’s fee calculator, apps that publish exclusively on third party stores don’t have to pay Apple any commission, just the core technology fee. That makes it a bit less crazy, and I don’t think article mentions it. Epic could save itself a lot of money by just not using the App Store but complaining is much more fun for Tim Sweeney.
the only complaint came from a Russian boxing body with a history of making suspect claims in the past
And that was only after she defeated a previously undefeated Russian. Sounds an awful lot like sore losers making up excuses.
They needed to have something that might be less appealing than an AI assistant
They’re already demanding search engines pay to search Reddit; will they have to pay even more to search paid subreddits?
A stool test sure, but I’m not going to trust a toilet to use a sterile needle to draw blood.
The article says OpenAI made a deal with Reddit, so blocking Microsoft isn’t going to keep Reddit’s data from getting fed to OpenAI
As opposed to the discs movies are sold on.
Apparently “recordable media” here means the kind you can record on at home, e.g. CD-R, DVD-R.
With any tech that allows the same quality with less data, there will always be someone pushing to cut quality to save even more data.
He’s rich enough to get several warnings before someone maybe considers bringing charges against him.
