My how fast the AI tech bros move to protect corporations but don’t move to protect the average coder, artists, writers.

I work with embedded devices that use canbus. Last week it was happy to read the manufacturer’s published .DCF files for a couple of joystick panel interface boards. Not anymore, conversation flagged and halted any time I get near them.
Claude. You can download these files from the manufacturer’s website. They only describe how analog and digital inputs get converted into canbus packets. I am not trying to hack Adobe here. Nope.
Oh well, DeepSeek, Mistral, GLM, Beam et. al. are all happy to read these files and continue work on the project. Anthropic’s usefulness to me has ended, it was nice while it lasted.
That reminds one, my dishwasher leaked so I went to download the manual from the manufacturer.
That got me a ban from Cloudflare. Apparently downloading a pdf from a website is bot behaviour.
American tech companies are going too far.
