Today's news is Google Chrome has been installing a 4 GB AI model on some people's computers without consent.
Fortunately, it wasn't installed on my daily driver, probably because I often don't have 4 GB free on this tiny drive. Insert Meme Head Tapping Guy
To prevent installation, go to chrome://flags and search for "optimization guide on device", change to Disabled.

Screenshot of search results for "Google News" where "What people are saying" is "Content quality concerns" including "Users express concern about clickbait, misinformation and poor AI-generated headlines replacing original content in Google News feeds, calling it 'slop'" and below that are three vertical search results judging google news harshly and an accordion showing more negative impacts of Google News

While helping my mum with something recently, I've noticed that her #GMail started featuring a banner that she ran out of space, and mails will stop arriving in less than a month. As expected, she never even noticed it. On the other hand, I had two thoughts about it.
Firstly, of course, #Google are shameless assholes (Microsoft's even worse, as I boosted at some point before). Mom's new phone came with Google Photos preinstalled in place of vendor's gallery, and of course it automatically started making backups of her photos and movies in the "cloud", or as I'd like to call it, to pedophiles. The photos finally filled up the free space, and Google started doing everything to convince her to buy more space. I honestly doubt she'd be able to figure out that she needed to turn these backups off and wipe them; if anything, I suspect she'd just start hopelessly removing photos from the phone, which might not have helped at all.
Secondly, it's that if such a thing happened to me, I probably wouldn't even know, because I'm reading my mail via a mail client. So I wouldn't ever have seen their banner. Well, unless they also send a mail about it, and my mom missed it among all the spam.

There used to be a Google provided cli tool that allowed you to script the uploading of videos to YouTube. (Google-CLI I think?). They pulled support a few years ago.
Two questions:
1) does anyone know of any such tools that might exist today?
2) Are there any similar tools for PeerTube?
