Meta ai not bothering with user consent is very on brand. It learned from the best.

Zuckerberg not caring about people's consent is literally the core principle that lead to facebook. He must be such a proud bot daddy.

AI has no agency. It can‘t go rogue. It just does what it‘s made to do, not necessarily what it‘s supposed to do.
