It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.
A bunch of other countries, like China, which had 75% of people polled stating that the Russia/Ukraine conflict was good for China.
It kinda is in some ways because it’s basically left China as Russia’s only option for a lot of import/export, so China gets a ton of leverage in determining prices. It’s also solidifying China as a regional hegemon and opens up a lot of opportunities for China diplomatically.
I wouldn’t go as far as to say the conflict is good, but there are benefits and it’s not as simple as “people are brainwashed”
Okay then, when surveyed in 2022, 40% of Chinese residents polled said that they support the Russian invasion, and another 30% said the actions weren’t necessarily right, but should be considered. Sounds pretty fucking brainwashed to me.
