I'm sorry but no. a few weeks ago there was the story where Meta employees were outraged and threatening to boycott the fact their own AI was going to start training on their work and spying what they do at work. So for the crap they produce they're perfectly ok with it training and spying on the userbase but once it starts looking inward suddenly that's a problem?

That's exactly the hypocrite attitude of americans who complain about Trump.
OK with terrorizing the world as long as they don't get bothered in their fake bubble of democracy.

Who says they're okay with it? Have you never worked in your life for a company you didn't agree with? I have. Pretty much every single one of them. You're blaming individual workers who are selling their labor instead of the higher ups who actually make the decisions or the systems that enable and reinforce them.
