I don't know dude. Every time I've assumed good faith on my paying for something means ad free, I've been screwed by some asshole with an MBA getting into a leadership position high enough to push ads through. I'd rather it be explicit

I get the point, we've all been burnt. But if you're not trusting anybody anyway, why would explicity in a non-binding blog post / press release soothe you?

We're in the middle of an AI bubble propping up the whole friggin US economy all by itself, driven mostly by a company that claimed to be a non-profit until a few years ago.

Because I've been burned by every big tech company I can think of. As for why it would be soothing, well because it gives me hope that when I read any further legal docs they'll hold to the post.

What does ai have to do with this? The sooner that bubble bursts the better IMO.
