Yes, I collected a couple decades of Muni fast passes too and finally gave them to an artist to destructively turn into some project. I was sad that my “rare” tickets probably won’t be kept forever, but I’m glad that somebody got some use out of it. I feel the same way about LLMs. I’m glad that they are learning from old published materials. In my opinion, 404media is cynically inciting anti-tech anger; they don’t otherwise have any interest in the preservation ecosystem.
