Watching US cozy up to restrict act with zero media coverage has me VERY worried. This is more dangerous than another Covid.

Yes, the TikTok Act barely mentions TikTok.
It’s basically a declaration of USG sovereignty over all wires.
I think this act could even be a serious alignment risk for some future AI to interpret as a threat.
You have to think very hard about all of your actions now. The world today is not a relevant guide for the true consequences of todays actions.
It gives sec. of commerce pretty much unlimited power to do as they please with any US citizen for any reason. The wording is so broad is trumps all constitutional rights. It’s unamerican, authoritarian and anyone who supports it should be tried for treason imo.
It bypasses all judicial review and blocks FOIA.
Yeah it’s wild.
The US is so big and so diverse, they have a really hard time writing sensible laws.
Their legislators resort to clearly bad practices like blindsiding each other with 60,000 page documents to read in 2 days.
They probably shouldn’t be doing so much new legislation. At what point is the legislature finished? Do people really think legislature is an open ended project?
After 200 years, you should be about finished.
Maybe the constitution should have made some provision for halvings? 😂
I think they know exactly what they are doing and don’t care. It’s like Patriot Act 2.0 but exponentially worse. It’s deliberate.
War-like policies being put in place, yet no one can see it.
We are going to be clawing at each others throats other to escape the 90% of humanity made obsolete by AI.
This isn’t even super intelligent AGI.
It’s just cheat code level AI.
One law I expect to see somewhere in the West, is it being made illegal to fire people.
Then massive protectioneering is coming.
