So you’re telling me the Wizard of Oz presented itself as a towering force of overwhelming technology, only to be unmasked as just some guy, off-screen?
So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.

If true, then fucking yikes.

What it Takes to Forget

If memories were ink
If these pages could think
Then I would burn it all
Then I would rather fall

Do not stop. If you stop at the acknowledgement and celebrate now, it will die where it stands. Keep calling, keep writing.
Visa employees clearly told to deescalate ASAP
MasterCard employees more than familiar with the issue
Stripe feeling the pressure
ACLU put out a statement
CBC covered all this

What you are doing is WORKING
You are getting RESULTS
KEEP CALLING
KEEP WRITING
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!!

"Containing these topics"

The thing is, people read these scary words and think about real people being harmed, totally understandable, but if we're talking about art... why are any of these topics off limit? Art is for talking about stuff, even the scary stuff.

“Please send us emails instead” means “we can put key words from your script on our corporate spam filter and ignore you, but calls shut down our entire contact infrastructure”

Keep fucking calling.
LMAO I called Visa’s customer support service - the guy on the other line was like “are you ALSO calling about the video game payment processing? Please send us emails instead.”

Keep up the calls, folks, we’re definitely gumming up their works
I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones

Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign

But we can EASILY top 1,000!

I prewrote an email + got the contact info - you just have to send!

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached.

They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others.

Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further.

Valve just updated their Steam rules to ban content that “may violate rules set by payment processors or banks.” Sounds boring. It’s not. It’s the quiet normalization of financial censorship and it’s going to hurt LGBTQ+ games and devs

Payment processors should only do one thing, process payments. They should not dictate what can and cannot be sold for goods and services in any marketplace.

I think "Crunchyroll started as a pirate streaming website" is information that is becoming less and less of common knowledge as the fandom swells.

I think its worth making a point of it whenever possible.
Sorta kinda agree with chunks of this piece.

But am definitely chuckling at "scrappy startup" being used for "illegally streamed content for years before going legit"

I know, I know. but if we're supposed to have an honest conversation, it should be had about its origins as well.
