What downsides are there?

If an LLM can save me 30 minutes writing nice emails and responses and help me brainstorm, debug, or elucidate my thoughts then it is very useful.

I mean i get that matrix is used by bad people, but that doesn't mean that matrix is bad.

Any decentralized platform will have this issue with csam, but that doesn't make ot bad. Matrix is basically what TOR is to browsing the internet, people use TOR for CSAM but that doesn't make tor bad.

However he does raise up a big concern and thats that homeserver admins are unable to change what they are hosting which means that they are forced to host CSAM which is a really big issue

Overall tho, matrix is still a good platform. There's nothing wrong with government contracts, its all open source. TOR was developed by the us military but that doesn't make it bad or even less effective

That'll just be used as a tool to discriminate against certain groups of people. If you standardize it to avoid any personal bias, then it'll be coachable/trainable and then people will work around it.

Imo any random person should be able to run for office

This is more of an "is it possible?" type of thing more than it is proving a negative.

For example is it possible for a human to grow 200 feet tall? The answer is no (im not a biologist but probably not) and then you can justify it with science

Can you elaborate on the portal? What does it do, is it between two locations or is it just a hole, or is it just a black circle?

Technically yes, they must pay. If they are there for a short while like an hour or so nobody would mind, depending on how dickish the owner of the property is.

For more long term parking say a couple days, it's liable to get towed.

I was working as a security guard in a warehouse type building, and there was this one car with a broken windshield that belonged to one of the employees. This car had been parked in the lot for about a month until the building owner had it towed (because he was a prick). Even though parking was free, and it wasn't a restricted area. Legally speaking it was within his right to tow that car, the employee ended up paying about 3-400 bucks to the tow company.
