the whole technology is based on fucking over artists, who didn't expect this exact thing?

It's not just the artists, anything you do in the digital realm and anything that can be digitised is fair game. In the UK NHS GP practices refuse to register you to see a doctor even when it's urgent and tell you to use a third-party app to book an appointment. You have use your phone to take photos of the affected area and provide a personal info. I fully expect that data to be fed into some AI and sold without me knowing and without a process for removal of data should the company go bust. It is preying on the vulnerable when they need help.

Last time I booked a blood test it was via the official NHS app , not a third party.

Important to note the "The NHS" is not a single entity and the GP practice is likely a private entity owned in partnership by the doctors. There are a number of reasons why individual practices can refuse to register.

Take your point about LLMs though.

I went to see my GP and the lady at the reception told me they no longer book visits at the reception and I had to use the app. Here's the privacy policy https://support.patientaccess.com/privacy-policy They reserve the right to pass your data to third party contractors and to use it for marketing purposes. There is the obligatory clause on regarding the right to be forgotten, but the AI companies claim it is impossible to implement.

I didn't read that as reserving the right - looks like a standard dpia that is opt-in and limited.

However, GP practices are essentially privatised - so you do have the right to register at another practice.

App? What's an app?

It's a thing you put on your phone

I don't have a phone

Well, we can't register you

You don't accept people who don't have phones? Could I have that in writing please, ..., oh, your signature on that please ...
