@OneFinanceGuy Eh, a lot of Starmer's difficulties governing is to do with his leadership style more than anything else. Like, he tends to outright try to ignore the PLP entirely and allegedly makes cabinet decisions with a handful of confidentes rather than the broader cabinet.

@skylermzx Honestly, soon enough we’ll be as authoritarian as China when it comes to this stuff. People don’t even oppose it anymore, they say the nothing to hide line unironically.

@northernshrek @tinyrowlet It’s an extremely big security risk and you would be putting the entire population at risk of identity theft. Hackers can steal accounts without even needing passwords nowadays, they can bypass 2fa.

+ the role of the police should not be to stop bullying.

@jimthegiant I mean.. there’s a difference between playing loud music or having a loud phone call in a coach or train carriage vs a pub doing pub things. The main difference being the walls of brick that constitute your house vs the walls of nothing when using transport..

@rorysutherland There are already maintenance loans/grants that can be used like that though.

@DaveSavage1982 @furious_apollo @PolitlcsUK The art was made in 2020

A number of years prior to AI generated images becoming coherent enough to produce something similar.

@DaveSavage1982 @furious_apollo @PolitlcsUK Copyright does not only defend works you personally like or dislike.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@DaveSavage1982 @furious_apollo @PolitlcsUK Again, fair dealing rules are different to the US concept of fair use.. this is just looping back around. Parody in the fair dealing sense in the UK are stricter in what they allow than in the fair use US sense.

See no.8 ... in UK copyright law it's still infringement even if no profit is made.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@DaveSavage1982 @furious_apollo @PolitlcsUK We do not. We have fair dealing, which is far more restrictive. The Paddington parody on Spitting Image was sued, as were other parodies, for instance. Despite all of them being fair use under US law.

Just showing the art held up by men on boats isn't transformative in UK law.

@ReticentCone @PopDetective "Whose fighting a war for survival using any of those four like how Ukraine is with A.I.?"

What Ukraine is using isn't LLMs. You're lumping different things together. There's a case for e.g. what Ukraine is doing to succeed long term, not for e.g. Grok. You're being sophistic.

@jeromekeinborg They suck globally.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@furious_apollo @DaveSavage1982 @PolitlcsUK There is, because fair use is American copyright law, not British.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@DaveSavage1982 @PolitlcsUK Fair use isn't a UK legal doctrine. That's an American one. UK copyright law is far more restrictive.

@AMaclarne18133 @tompainebones The majority of the working class have at least BTECs/A Levels/and so on. The UK overall is pretty much at its peak for the % who are educated to either an A Level-equivalent level or higher.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@tompainebones It's an age thing imo. A lot of those with no A Levels/BTECs/other qualifications will be boomers who grew up in poverty in the 60s, 70s, etc.

@thecommoner1215 @DPJHodges @LupineLives Keyword phrase there: in the USA. We're talking about in the UK.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@DaveSavage1982 @PolitlcsUK There is copyright on political art within UK copyright law.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@GravitasLost @PolitlcsUK You’re mistaken. Fair use is an American legal concept, UK copyright law does not actually have a concept of fair use in the same way that America does. It’s a lot more limited vis a vis parody or satire, for instance.

[OverlyBritish @OverlyBritish]

@siennamarla This would be rather similar to the pre-1900s US Senate, the members of which were usually appointed by state legislatures.
