ok so. im probably going to go on hiatus for... a while if you havent heard, scratch is starting to use like. a LOT of ai. not only are they training generative ai off of basically ANYTHING you post (comments, art, code, etc.) iirc, but they also have an ai WATCH WHAT YOU DO and guess if you are under 18. not only is this really gross and weird, but if the ai thinks you are underage, you have to give them info. some of the things you can be forced to give are tame (ie. parent's email) but if you set your location to the us it asks you for your HOME STATE????? im not gonna feed the bots sorry
i have a few big things I'd like to finish and then yeah no byebye
