98% sure I have just found a Neo Nazi fetish site I won’t post links or do anything to it, but it’s certainly…strange

Well. Not him personally, anyway…

Yeah someone is going to die over the moral panic of porn in the UK. One idiot with a gun, misogynistic hatred of women (dressed up as feminism) and the location of Bonnie Blue will end very badly. How there has not been more murders is surprising.

Brazil backs image based sexual abuse, voyeurism and state backed creation of CSAM.

My view on Charlie Kirk is exactly what you think my view on Charlie Kirk is.

This basically means that they want to defacto ban porn and will bully any US based websites into doing it, even when those webcams comply with stuff like 2257 and other laws. The age of the offshore porn site looms…

A new @yougov.co.uk poll shows that the number of Britons who want to be choked during sex outranks those actually doing it. Rather than discuss issues like consent and safety, British authorities are arguing that any representation of choking in sex should be criminalized.

hmmmm YouTube is just recommending me Neo Nazi music now for some reason…

"Age verification laws are accidentally driving traffic to shadier porn sites... It’s the unintended consequence that everyone saw coming, except apparently the UK government."

This is why I use a virtual webcam…

Surprise, surprise. AV providers are disclosing personal information. "An age verification provider is potentially leaking information about people visiting porn sites... AgeGO receives requests disclosing the site being visited as well as a link to the exact video the person is trying to access"

Yeah drug runners don’t use boats like this It would be like a robber using a bicycle The Trump regime just murdered a bunch 8f innocent people

🚨 The age assurance trial report makes the case AGAINST a social media age ban. The risks it identifies - mass surveillance, biometric data collection, Big Tech control, and systematic bias against girls and POC - clearly outweigh any potential benefits.

⚠️ Your chat, on watch #OpenAI now scans #ChatGPT conversations for harmful content. If a threat of violence is detected, human reviewers may suspend accounts - and, in cases of imminent danger, alert law enforcement. Self-harm content, however, remains private… #ransomNews #Privacy #AIethics

Messing around with generating real people, these all came from video game characters. None of them are real (and admittedly, don’t look 100% like the characters they are based on)

I dunno, when you start blaming OpenAI because unwell people did unwell people things, filing massive lawsuits, and waging ap press campaign, this seems the entirely predictable course correction. You wanted guardrails to ensure mentally ill people can't encounter harmful output, now you got it.

I’m sure this won’t end up with people leaving and piracy becoming a thing.

Translation: We will punish you if your chatbot even dares to mention anything remotely positive about abortion or LGBTQ+ people.

New UserMag piece outlines the problems with age verification and increased censorship online, written by Pratika Katiyar and Rebecca Williams at the ACLU and Cynthia Conti Cook who leads work the Surveillance Resistance Lab.

Working on an AI project and unironically made a very realistic image…

Lawmakers must act to protect users’ metadata, and “people should make use of technologies which either do not retain metadata past the time where it is necessary to provision services, or do not collect it at all,” EFF’s @legind.bsky.social told @Metro.co.uk. metro.co.uk/2025/08/21/...

Law puts other things (LGBTQ+ discussions, social media dms, etc) in the same category as porn. Kids want access to A, figure out way to get around restrictions, can now also see B since they had to get a work around anyway. Censorious assholes refuse to learn, add more censorship.

You can’t pass Yoti Age verification as THUG2 shrek…

Okay I managed to bypass this within seconds…

This should be a crime. This is state sponsored voyeurism and image based sexual abuse. It won’t help keep children, minors safe but will put women and girls at risk.

The youth REALLY don’t like YouTube’s new age verification system…my feed is full of stuff like this… www.reddit.com/r/youtube/s/...

Hot take: Removing this statue is deeply misogynistic and inherently harmful to body diversity. www.lbc.co.uk/world-news/d...

The youth do not want age verification, at all My subreddit feed has been full of people say stuff like this, both in the teenagers subreddits (I don’t know why YouTube keeps pushing those subreddits to me, I’m in my late 20s) and also the YouTube subreddit! www.reddit.com/r/TeenagersB...

Why would anybody report any crime related to porn, adult content or age verification when this kind of deeply misogynistic rhetoric is being pushed by the government and MPs? Gabby Bertin will have blood on her hands, mark my words.

Liberal Reform have condemned the Online Safety Act for its threat to privacy and free exchange of information for millions of people. The pressure is on @libdems.org.uk to oppose this "poorly drafted legislation". Will they stand up for civil liberties? www.libdemvoice.org/we-have-a-du...

Age verification is creating an information desert. The Online Safety Act sets every UK user to child as default. Teenagers? Blocked. Adults? Content denied unless we do age checks with unregulated companies. It's not just porn! News is being scrubbed from view ⛔ www.404media.co/uk-users-nee...

I'm your (not so) private dancer. The Online Safety Act gets even sillier. Spotify users must now compromise their privacy to verify their age, which could end up in them having their accounts deactivated 🤯 Bad law makes for bad, incoherent outcomes. www.independent.co.uk/tech/spotify...

With over 420k people signing a petition to repeal the Online Safety Act, it’s clear that MPs need to fix this mess! Rather than protect children, millions of adults are facing widespread censorship and threats to their privacy. Write to your MP now ⬇️ action.openrightsgroup.org/tell-your-mp...

I see the roll-out of UKOSA (the UK's new age verification / online ID check law that many US lawmakers are trying to emulate) is going swimmingly ... use-their-id.com/faq

Last week's Tea app leak and the UK's disastrous roll out of the Online Safety Act are an important snapshot of our near future: An internet that feels safer, but surveils our every move, supported by massive databases of our most embarrassing and sensitive data. www.garbageday.email/p/the-tea-ap...

First time I think I have ever supported reform politicians.

First time I have seen this from copilot…

> UK government requires drivers license, or something, to view stuff on the internet > Endless trove of user PII from KYC data dumps

Founder of Collective Shout (who got all the adult content banned from Steam and itch), Melinda Tankard Reist, is on the Stakeholder Advisory Board of the Australian government's social media age assurance technology trial. So is @igea.bsky.social CEO, Ron Curry. ageassurance.com.au/stakeholder-...

Today in the UK, the Online Safety Act (2023) came into force. This means that social media companies are required to undertake age verification for users in the UK to see "adult content". And who decides what is and is not "adult content"? The social media companies themselves.

This is why age verification in any capacity is dangerous. There will be more of this, much more, especially targeting women. Age verification anywhere (not just porn) needs to be sent back to the drawing board.

the UK’s Internet age verification law has led to the effective censorship of all LGBT content on Reddit what a shocking and unexpected turn of events!

"'Mama said knock you out,'" computer program posits. The Atlantic would be well served by getting a fucking grip.

My wife saw what I was trying to generate and told me that she looks like a female member of atomwaffen and I don’t disagree…

Generated an image of a woman back in 2023 that had a unique face, lost the original image somewhere but kept thinking about it. Found it again, now I’m trying to get chat gpt to make a mugshot I can use to generate more images of her. Not 100% perfect but looks good enough.

the handful of monopolistic payment processors do not deserve the right to cut people off from financial services in retaliation for speech. parasitic.

I said this will happen at the start of the year.

IDs at the ready 🪪 Age assurance requirements under the Online Safety Act kick in this Friday. You have to hand over your sensitive data to cyber bouncers without being sure they'll protect your privacy. ORG is calling for these providers to be regulated ⬇️ www.openrightsgroup.org/press-releas...
