They could solve this problem and a bunch of others by banning the surveillance and collection of user data without consent.
Can't help but imagine this would result in having to "read" and sign a 70 page ToS and 30 page Privacy Policy before we can buy groceries.
sounds like a job for foss AI. I'm sure a ToS specific model running on a CPU would be more than enough. I think that's what Pegasus does and I'm sure there are more. copy and paste, get a ELI5, then decide.
edit: I bet someone could flimflam it into a browser extension.
The reading isn't the issue. It's the fact that it would become standard to force customers to get surveillance consent for access to FOOD
how the heck did I miss the groceries part?
How dare you question the orphan-crushing economy!
