There's 2 different things here:
You need both or you're loosing freedom of speech.
If the government is “nice“, then you won't feel threatened by this and you'll believe that it's better because we can now find the “bad guys”.
But what if the rules change and your thoughts / feelings / beliefs are now “bad”... how do you band together to make it better?
And, the internet is already flooded by bots, well, at least 50%, but I'm guessing no-one's noticed.
As a queer person I'm being very careful about what I say in various spaces right now given the current context. Thinking about replacing accounts that are more tied to me and making some.
Also thinking to use local LLMs to rephrase what I post so writing pattern detection won't work.
