They are desparate to ban open models.

lol how

They started yesterday. Announced right around the same time that GLM enables cyber threats or some nonsense.

Apparently they don't want to compete now that they're doubling the costs.

lol, that ship sailed years ago

Heh, good luck with hardware. Will bankrupt you at current prices.
