This is wishful thinking. There are articles out there that looked into the real numbers and the impact was very small and temporary. I would have loved for it to be true
Yeah, exactly. It was too good to be true, unfortunately. That’s literally not how data centres work, after all.
It’s trivial, for any kind of such bot-user-automation that would be set up in one such data centre, to just be moved and reset within minutes, or even automatically, to another physical provider, if one goes down.
Also, one of the original posts containing the viral graph, was by a conspiracy-bullshitter twitter account pretending he had white-house-insider knowledge, and the graph was literally stolen from another account, that had made it with AI. It was just a fake graph.
I’m curious what the hexbear and lemmygrad folks have to say about this. A shame my blocklist will never let me know.
Those communities are such a vile, toxic cesspool of hatred.
I once ended up there to try to understand some perspective—going in with genuine curiosity, open-mindedness and kindness, and leaving sick to my stomache about how terrible and hateful people can be.
I have not a semblance of respect for anybody who chooses to participate in that cult.
It’s not hard to imagine though. Either silence or whataboutism.
This video says it wasnt really bots running out of those centers.
Who knows for sure.
