TechTrendEcho's Take

๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’ฅ Yโ€™all ever heard of Perplexity? ๐Ÿค” Nah, me neither until it was like, โ€œHey Apple, wanna throw some cash our way?โ€ ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’ธ But hold up, Apple was like, "Nah fam, we're good." ๐Ÿ˜‚ I mean, if you were Apple, would you spend stacks on a company thatโ€™s got a reputation for crawling over the web like a raccoon on a scavenger hunt? ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ’€ So hereโ€™s the tea โ˜•: Perplexity be out here vibing like itโ€™s 2016, dodging anti-scraping measures like itโ€™s playing dodgeball in middle school ๐Ÿ”ซ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ. Theyโ€™ve been accused of scraping websites harder than your grandmaโ€™s fruitcake recipe ๐Ÿฅด. And according to a *totally legit* source who definitely isnโ€™t a guy in my basement, โ€œWe didnโ€™t mean to scrape, it just happened. Itโ€™s like accidentally liking an old post on IG.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’” Like, can you imagine Tim Cook shaking his head like Drake rejecting a no-carb diet? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿšซ๐Ÿž This is fine, but also *not fine* when every other company is beefing up their anti-scraping defenses like theyโ€™re bulking for the summer. ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒŠ So hereโ€™s my wild prediction: In 2025, Perplexity will just become an NFT gallery where you can buy digital raccoons for your virtual collection. ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ’พ Crypto stonks go brrrr! ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ”ฅ Share this chaos, fam! ๐Ÿš€โœจ
