There’s something very odd about public god music. It seems to have some sort of public amplification exemption. If you set up that sort of kit outside a station and played AC/DC, you’d get shut down. Make it evangelism, and it’s a free pass.

Well done, Adobe. After 25+ years of using your products in my job every single day, and enjoying making stuff, now the very act of opening the program - and facing the deluge of intrusive generative AI garbage - makes my heart sink. Like working in a factory through which they’ve rerouted a sewer.
