Only the real things are actual humans who have likely not consented to ever being in this database at all let alone having parts of their likeness being used for this horrific shit. There is no moral argument for this garbage:

The real DNA negates a lot of that unfortunately. If any family member also used the service they can use that to triangulate your identity.
Honestly, both here and on Reddit I see more of that blind faith for Google and Microsoft. It’s so weird that the open-source community has a slice of people insisting their giant company is somehow virtuous because it’s slightly less fashionable. Even weirder when they write paragraph’s psychoanalyzing imaginary people.
Google’s ad network and YouTube are pushing the agenda more than pretty much everyone.
So far so good though Shopify being a major sponsor makes me doubt their long term direction.
Yeah they need an angel like Max.
Wait till you find out about the internet and social media (including here).
Your proposal is equivalent to just letting bots completely control the internet. It kills it. We either want an internet or we don’t.
That hasn’t been true for a long time. Filtering bots has increasingly become more difficult, expensive, and sophisticated. Not to mention that there are still plenty of state sponsored bad actors using real people and hybrid approaches.
You think the current US would stop at Canada and Mexico?
Social media has been around a long time. It is not reasonable to expect people to think of technology they can’t imagine even existing ten years in the future when “consenting” to use a platform. Legally you are correct. Morally this is obviously terrible. Everything about how terms and conditions are communicated is designed to take advantage of people who won’t or are unable to parse its meaning. Consent needs to be informed.
