A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

hear me out.
EA has a huge distribution network that requires clients to be installed on the users system along with login IDs.
considering Kushner is involved he likely has the connections to gain access to the American data mined by DOGE and can orchestrate identifying Americans off of the subset of data from EA and DOGE.
EA has loose morals enough to participate with a fascist government but never had the opportunity until this happened.
considering 17% of all gamers are LGBTQ and many others are ASD, I'm concerned EA is going to surveil and notify based on users habits and online interactions.
I suppose only time will tell, but something feels very weird about this whole thing.
