We all hate AI slop and what these companies are doing(datacenters, replacing employees, etc) but our most effective move against these companies might actually be using all of their free services as much as possible. Better yet automate their use with a script if you can. Clearly politicians are already bought and payed for here. The entire town can vote no but that data center is still going up.

DDOS the AI overlords by generating a constant stream of nonsense through the free services they are trying to use to get us all “hooked on AI”. If nothing else this would screw up their current business model and put unnecessary wear on their chips and screwing up their user metrics.

      Thats kinda why I put it out there. Not saying its something i could pull off but it does seem like something someone with the right skills and motivation could pull off.

      There’s a few problems I can see like them blocking IPs for account creation but I think thats something that can be overcome given that it is over by other such botnets.
