    I am once again happy that the EU is fighting practices like these via legislation.

    Some outcomes can be annoying, but the net result is still positive, for the consumers and their data privacy at least.

      Unfortunately, most LLM companies always were naturally an intelligence operation on civilians, and determining if they are now state-backed seems like a irrelevant detail.

      Privacy has been dead for some time now. The fact is most business people never figure out how they are exploited. The modern intelligence campaigns just made it economical to hit almost everyone regardless of scale... often under some silly pretense like terrorists wanting our underpants. =3
