If you run a store on Main Street,

should you get to decide if people can take pictures of your store?

That isn’t what they are doing. The goal here is to use LLM to never have the end user leave Google.

Gone will be revenue sharing, gone will be users visiting other sites.

The goal is for Google to keep ALL the revenue, for content written by others.

Hope that works out for them. I have already taken down over 300 articles written on networking, Linux, FreeBSD, Wireguard, DSP, software defined radios. I am not feeding a machine that steals my writing, regardless if I never explicitly expected payment from the viewer.

I’m not entirely sure that’s a bad thing for the user though. A few years ago, you could click on pretty much any blog post and you knew you were getting Hugh quality or at least relevant information related to your search query.

Nowadays most blog posts in the SERPs are full of spam and unnecessary filler text. I stopped clicking on random blogs because of how awful they’ve become. I’m currently using bing chat (which uses ChatGpt 4 under the hood) and it saves me a lot of time.
