#22Claudebot is one of the most aggressive scraping bots I have encountered on my server in recent years. Because of that I'll block everything related to Claude.
For me ( https://padiracinnovation.org ), it's Google which scans several times a day, which is astonishing for a blog updated once a week. ********** http://www.google.com/bot.html 449 http://www.bing.com/bingbot.htm 254 http://yandex.com/bots 159 imagesift.com 117 claudebot@anthropic.com 69 http://www.facebook.com/externalhit_uatext.php 36 https://dataforseo.com/dataforseo-bot 34 http://www.apple.com/go/applebot 32…
For me it's semrush, not being able to understand robots.txt wildcards, and 20x more traffic than normal bots. What are they doing on a movie site anyway? No problem with claudebot

#23They banned my account a few weeks back because I asked it to translate some Japanese text that was on a kitchen knife. Still no response from their Trust & Safety team. It's frustrating because Claude is really quite good at coding and I used it frequently.
Trust and safety folks are the biggest bunch of weenies around. Yeah I said it.

Did he complain about safety and freedom, or did he complain about censorship? Is it possible that corporate censorship in the west today is already worse than state censorship was in the USSR, due to the unavoidable encroachment of technology into everyday life and the surveillance/centralisation path that we've taken with the internet, without the impact on safety and freedom (yet)?
Once you have the surveillance in place, it only takes a regime change and a suitable excuse (e.g. a terrorist attack) before you live in a dystopia worse than the USSR.

That's saying a lot given the other contenders are DEI folx.

That‘s not funny at all.
Just like that bullshit about today's "censorship" being in any way comparable to what happened in Eastern Europe. Tell that to my father who was banned from schools or to my grandfather who was in prison, both of them would punch you for it.
> my father who was banned from schools or to my grandfather who was in prison
We have those in the west today.

I mean, that's who I would hire for trust and safety.

It is not. It is absolutely inadequate comparison.

The worst thing about the western style censorship is that it’s completely useless for the cause.
For example, the internet is filled with blatant hate speech and racism, but because they don’t use the keywords or don’t show the designated symbols, that’s allowed.
However, the speech that doesn’t have intent of harm, it’s just a joke or have incidental content with symbols or words that are considered harmful, is banned.
In the last few years, it came to such a ridiculous point that The most oppressive regimes in terms of freedom of speech are those who claim to be the “free world”. They are also very unforgiving, you can’t apologize and move on. They will cut you off and never talk to you again. Even if they were right with their position, they don’t value you as a human being and if the cost to win you back is non-zero, they discard you. That’s fascism.
It’s not only that the speech is oppressed. Also, the product quality is greatly degraded because of this. It’s the worst aspect of everything, in proper fascist or communist systems at least you get some benefits like clean streets or free education.
