I called today! Right now the line is that they took down "illegal content" so I took the role of the confused suburban woman - oh gosh was there a big law that changed? I saw headlines that Mastercard decided Steam couldn't carry some games, and I use Steam. What was illegal about the games that got taken down? My friends play horror games, you know, and I was going to buy them some games for Christmas, how am I supposed to know what the right thing to do is if I don't know what the illegal things are? I didn't know that horror games were illegal now? No I don't want to complain, I'm just trying to understand, wasn't it the payment processors that decided the games had to come down? But you don't know what was illegal? Nobody here can tell me what the illegal games were - ok, can you transfer me to somebody who can? It must be a big change, I just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing, so what's the law that was broken? I don't want to break a law, of course, so did something big change?

Took up 25 minutes, asked for a case number which dragged the call out longer. They want to direct you to file a complaint and end the call, but the more you can ask questions the longer the call takes. Stay kind, polite, confused, and worried.

Every time you have GenAI make you an anime waifu with three titties and a dumptruck ass a family doesn't get to have a drink or bathe.

Every time you ask Copilot to write you a PowerShell script to stroke your boss' ego, a city experiences a brownout.

Every time you chat with your AI "girlfriend" a farmer doesn't get to water their animals.

Using these tools actively hurts you and your community, while at the same time enriching some shitheel who would happily step on your neck to make an additional dollar. Don't use them. Actively remove them from devices you own. Disable them whenever possible. Go out of your way to avoid them. It's honestly not hard. You've been using the internet just fine without GenAI hallucinating at you.
