Is this serious? It reads like sarcasm.
Definitely satire.
Or further down
There's also the nice "trust us" under is it legal?
Its a parody on how all of the data was stolen in the first place, also I caught some subtle nids to how fucked the maintenance will be.
It feels like an art installation that actually can be used if someone really wanted to sabotage their business by creating a dependency on an unfixable mess. I truly believe there might be a substantial amount of business idiots out there who think all of this is a good idea lol
The company name is literally Malus
On second thought people keep naming companies things like Palantir
I think this is just for fun. However, I did work for a company where we did everything in-house from scratch, down to our own font face, because we couldn't afford the legal costs associated with deciphering license agreements.
That seems like a smart move (not)!
I have no idea, their website doesn't seem to work very well on my phone, I can't bring up their About Us or Privacy Policy / Terms of Service for some reason either.
The Problem with Open Source™
It's real satire, the worst kind. Or I guess you could call it self-aware trash? The whole site is "satire" and makes jokes about how this is bad for the ecosystem... But then, the product works. It accepts payments and delivers code in return.
Have you tested it?
Not me, but a friend, yeah. And others online too.
It's real. It's very real, they're very transparent about how shady and horrible they are, and their entire process, and why it is technically not illegal, and how aware they are of all of it.
Edit: I got got. Honestly, in this modern landscape, can you blame me for thinking people bragging about how they're legally using AI to steal data were being satirical? The Onion notoriously can't keep up with real world news, cut me a break.
Yeah, the down voting got the point across. No need to be a jerk and rub it in
I mean, you were at like 2/2 when I posted that...
+1 for coming back!
