I should probably mention for anyone who cares, this account has been made private until further notice due to Twitter's decision to allow random people to instantly bastardize your photos and videos with AI. I likely will not post here for some time due to this.

Unpopular opinions on Toby?

We're glad Discord is being investigated, but you are one of many corrupt politicians that are shoving ID age verification laws down everyone's throats.
You don't care about "protecting kids." You want to harvest everyone's biometric data

[DeepHumor @DeepHumor]

We all agree that Discord deserves to be investigated, but the problem is that Ken Paxton is a HUGE supporter of ID age verification.
His idea of "protecting kids" is just mass surveillance

how it feels to have a bunch of creative ideas you wanna draw but got no motivation to actually do it so they just linger in your subconscious

OkCupid's founders personally funneled three million users' dating photos to a facial recognition company they'd invested in. No contract. No consent. One founder sent the data from his personal email. Those photos trained software that identifies age, sex, and race, sold to police and military...

YouTube is mass DELETING animation channels. @TeamYouTube

Over the past few days, I’ve seen dozens of posts from animators whose channels were suddenly removed.

The reason is almost always the same:
“spam, fraud, and deception policies”

But these are normal animation channels.
Original content. Made manually. Animations, characters, editing - all created by the authors.

No spam. No scams. No deceptive practices.

Channels just disappear.

Appeals are either denied, or something even stranger happens: there are already multiple cases where a channel gets restored after an appeal - and then gets removed again shortly after.

So a human approves the appeal…
and then an AI deletes the channel AGAIN.

Support response in these cases:
“the decision is final”

This no longer looks like isolated mistakes.
This looks like a systemic issue.

@TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators @YouTube is this normal?

You were duped, this act is not about child safety, it’s a censorship and mass surveillance bill under the guise of “child safety”

What is needed is parents being educated about the dangers out there and actually parenting their children.

When are we going to collectively as a society just stop these people?

[No to Digital ID @NoToDigitalID]

Edward Snowden said it first:

"When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say.'"

"Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life."

[Privacy Trash Panda @TrashcanPrivacy]

Age verification (digital ID) laws are unconstitutional. They are violating both free speech and the right to peaceably assemble.

Companies can make these requirements for private service if they want, but the US government can’t mandate it.

[DeepHumor @DeepHumor]

This law is awful and frankly, so are you and everyone else supporting it. You can try disguising mass surveillance as “protecting the kids” all you want, everyone sees through your BS.

The obsession with live action comes from a place of insecurity where these people feel shame for liking animation.

[MR. OBVIOUS @ObviousRises]

Some Linux autist dig some digging and discovered the push for Digital ID and Verification on an OS level is coming from META which is lobbying millions of dollars to push for Age Verification and Digital ID laws.
