alt Hacker NewsAnthropic was the first to spam reddit with fake users and posts, flooding and controlling their subreddit to be a giant sycophant.
They nuked the internet by themselves. Basically they are the willing and happy instigators of the dead internet as long as they profit from it.
They are by no means ethical, they are a for-profit company.
I actually agree with you, but I have no idea how one can compete in this playing field. The second there are a couple of bad actors in spammarketing, your hands are tied. You really can’t win without playing dirty.
I really hate this, not justifying their behaviour, but have no clue how one can do without the other.
