Chrome is one of the first things I disable on my Android devices, and I hate the idea of signing up for any accounts just to access local files.
But Canon welcomed me with a big surprise, and a fuck you, too!
Like Nvidia forces you to create an account to download your DRIVERS. Why??
They dont? I've downloaded Nvidia drivers many times and never had to create an account.
Sorry, I meant with the Nvidia App (formerly the Nvidia Experience app). I'm not sure if the site lets you download them directly, but the app used to do that freely until an update required users to sign up.
They removed login requirement for Nvidia App
Just found out, thanks!
But please don't let that dissuade you from hating Nvidia. That company deserves some hate.
No login with website. And your don't need the Nvidia app either. Just driver's
It didn't used to be that way, sure. Until now when governments want all the info on users with hardware that can process AI.
Edit: It may actually depend on what country you're in, for that exact reason.
I'm in Mexico, so not sure if it's relevant.
This actually made me curious enough to dig just a little deeper down this rabbit hole, so I did a little ~~Googling~~ Ducking on it. There's quite a few articles regarding this, not sure how much it does or doesn't pertain to AI rules and regulations though 🤷♂️

Good to know that it only took them 8 years to reconsider. Although I distinctly remember not being able to download my drivers without an account via the app during the pandemic. I wasn't living here in 2016. 🤷♂️
Though it's been forever since I've used anything Nvidia, I have heard something about that.
Since Nvidia has jumped full force into Artificial Intelligence, governments are requiring information on who owns and uses such hardware, and it most likely also comes with spying on what you're using it for.
We truly live in a fucking dystopia now. ☹️
There is no law forcing Nvidia to require accounts to download drivers. I literally just downloaded Nvidia drivers a few days ago without needing an account.
It may not be a law, but when NVidia has numerous contracts with the federal government, and the feds ask NVidia to do them a favor...Well, NVidia does it. That assumes they didn't secretly order NVidia to do so via some obscure provision in a national security law.
It most likely depends on the country you're in. Some countries are already adopting such laws. Not much different than the age verification thing some countries are doing, total invasion of privacy, to appease the powers in charge.
