@persianbanoo The support for human rights was always a pretense. They never cared. People were used.

در این خواسته های آمریکا و تمام حرفهایی که این چند وقت زدن و در مذاکرات آمریکا هیچوقت نه خواستار آزادی زندان سیاسی شد نه هیچوقت خواستار متوقف کردن اعدام ها شد و نه هیچوقت خواستار آزاد کردن اینترنت شد

Iranian billionaire signals backing for Ghalibaf
Babak Zanjani 🔝@babakzanjani_ch

هیچ مذاکره‌ای یک‌طرفه به نتیجه نمی‌رسد؛ در مذاکره، هم امتیاز داده می‌شود و هم امتیاز گرفته می‌شود. نباید نتیجه هیچ مذاکره‌ای را در کوتاه‌مدت و لحظه‌ای قضاوت کرد؛ مذاکره، مسیری برای دستیابی به منافع پایدار در آینده است. آنچه اهمیت دارد، نگاه به آینده و سرنوشت جوانان این کشور است. آقای #دکتر‌قالیباف، ملت ایران با تدبیر رهبری جوان و با تکیه بر هنر، تخصص و درایت و فرصت‌سازی شما و دیپلمات‌های همراه، برنده این میدان خواهند بود. دست خدا و ملت پشت و پناه شما خواهد بودو محکم‌تر از قبل حرکت کنید. #بابک‌زنجانی #دات‌وان

@deanwball But also absolutely the reason there should be no regulation because otherwise China beat us to those highly capable models (that might be made up).

Dean W. Ball@deanwball·
Every single person saying “Anthropic made up mythos,” despite *JP Morgan* and many others being clearly concerned about it, is perfectly fulfilling this prediction. They think “perceiving AI models as highly capable” is an EA perversion intended to attain “regulatory capture.”
Dean W. Ball@deanwball

@duganist Yup. “erstwhile accelerationist who loses it when they realize what ai is, but they don’t even have enough context for what ai is that they just think all the stuff that scares them is some ea/anthropic perversion” is going to be a type of guy for a little while.

Those 10-points include, inter alia, Iranian management (fee collection) in Hormuz.

@HalSinger Fan of yours, so not being an internet jerk, but I suspect this Anthropic post is descriptive of the sharing that's happening, and that's pretty inline with what's common in the cybersecurity space, e.g. identifying proxies & evasion. anthropic.com/news/detecting…

Ok I found the relevant provision. The conduct has to be a cyber attack, which is a stretch here. And the act makes clear that the exemption "is inapplicable to price-fixing, allocating a market between competitors, monopolizing or attempting to monopolize a market, boycotting, or exchanges of price or cost information, customer lists, or information regarding future competitive planning."

What is it called when three horizontal rivals collaborate by sharing competitively sensitive information with the goal of fending off entrants? (FWIW, I'm not aware of any exemption to the antitrust laws when the entrant might be Chinese).

@HalSinger It's not hard to find. And, "cybersecurity threat" is fairly broadly defined. It's also not as though DeepSeek et al are registering one (at)deepseek(.)cn account, they're often engaging in the types of circumvention that resemble CFAA violations.

@HalSinger No, federal law gives the tech companies antitrust immunity for sharing cyber threat information.

@CDA If you think someone is violating some other law, you can sue them or report them to the authorities. But you must act unilaterally.

If there's no 'inter' in internet, it's a blackout. Expensive, regime controlled VPNs, whitelisted users, and brief lapses aren't access. It is absolutely true that Iran has engaged in a mass, extended, and near unprecedented blackout of internet access.
Helyeh Doutaghi@Helyeh_Doutaghi

Calling it a total “internet blackout” is misleading. What has been restricted is *international* connectivity, not the domestic internet: national websites, banking systems, and local alternatives to platforms like Uber, YouTube, and Google remain fully functional. The adoption of alternative digital infrastructures is not uniquely Iranian. States that perceive themselves as vulnerable to imperialist cyber operations or disinformation campaigns in hybrid warfare adopt this strategy. Reliance on domestic platforms in this context is a matter of digital sovereignty and resilience.

This pedantry has the moral clarity of saying "I didn't steal everything from that man, I left him a dollar." And it only works with a Western audience – anyone who spends a moment looking at Persian twitter can see the mass pain of not being able reach family. It's repugnant.
