Open-Source Isn’t Dying. It’s Being Eaten Alive by AI Slop.

Codeberg’s recent outage wasn’t a server failure; it was a suffocation. Automated AI agents and crypto projects devoured the platform’s resources until it collapsed. To survive, open-source platforms are being forced into a brutal paradox: restricting access to protect the very freedom they promised. The real threat to the independent web isn’t Big Tech anymore—it’s the tragedy of the digital commons, accelerated by zero-cost AI slop.

Open-Source AI Is Not Free. It’s Funded by the Exploitation of Women and Children.

A new report reveals that Hugging Face’s open-source AI models are being weaponized to create nonconsensual deepfake nudes of women and children. The platform’s inaction exposes a brutal truth: the celebrated ‘democratization of AI’ is actually subsidized by the exploitation of the vulnerable. It’s time to stop pretending developer freedom is more important than human safety.
