It's my fediversary! -
From the Dutch news org de Volkskrant:From the Dutch news org de Volkskrant:
"The Dutch intelligence services AIVD and MIVD have started sharing less information with their American partners, according to the heads of the Dutch services. Peter Reesink (MIVD): "It's true that we sometimes stop sharing things." Erik Akerboom (AIVD): "Sometimes you have to consider each case individually : can I still share this information or not?"
"This is the first time that the AIVD and MIVD have acknowledged that developments in the United States, where human rights and the rule of law are under pressure, have consequences for the intelligence relationship. This marks a striking rupture in the decades-long relationship between the Dutch services and American intelligence agencies such as the CIA and NSA."

And then I was tagged in this LinkedIn post, which seems to agree.

The political-economy of generative AI seems to mark a wider systemic shift from the greenwashing of 'green growth' to the open nihilism of 'growth!@danmcquillan Yup. The AI boosters are all-in on the idea that every human being on the planet (read: all large tech companies) should be seeking to always maximize that amount of energy they consume. Not even joking, that's a core belief: That by not exhausting all the available resources, we are somehow slacking and being less productive than we could.
