Unlike regular piracy, accessing “their” product hosted on their servers using their power and compute is pretty clearly theft. Morally correct theft that I wholeheartedly support, but theft nonetheless.

Well they’re busy shitting all over the constitution, democracy, the rule of law, common fucking decency, common sense, voters, and the English language - the establishment clause was bound to catch some splatter.
Yeah - that’s all part of the “unless enough people leave” point.
It really depends on the market though - if it’s not an essential good, it doesn’t need to be replaced (online games). If there’s adequate competition, there’s largely undifferentiated alternatives (utilities around me)… and if not, you probably don’t have a choice (your local government services, monopolies, and shallow markets for essential goods).
The lawyers will only clean the city out - when the cops fuck around, it’s everyone else that finds out.
Better to just execute them on the spot - you don’t want them slipping out of the cuffs, then have your partner’s widow asking “why didn’t you just shoot them?”
People are already searched upon arrest, and I don’t think most people are inclined to try to fistfight a pair of cops armed with batons, tasers and guns from the back of a cop car. It’s not necessary in most of the rest of the world - are the residents of the land of the free so inherently prone to violence that they should be locked up just in case?
Unless they hate it enough to ditch a business or service in great enough numbers that it costs the business more money than they save by outsourcing to a computer, people had better get used to it.
I guess what they needed was a good guy with a gun, eh?
I guess Israel were too busy genociding Palestinians to make it to the meeting.
So what do you call the group killing many, many times more kids than the “experts in killing children”, and why did you deflect to the comparatively minor crimes of Hamas?
It’s implied in you running straight past Israel’s actions to focus on condemnation of Palestinians comparatively minor actions - or is there another explanation?
Suddenly you’re all bashful about slapping labels on stuff?
It’s OK - we can try another - what do you call a group that’s killed orders of magnitude more children than the “experts in killing children”?
What do you call killing thousands of children?
There’s self-hosted LLMs, (e.g. Ollama), but for the purposes of this conversation, yeah - they’re centrally hosted, compute intensive software services.
