 Ok, I can see that point. However, this will vary from country to country / jurisdiction to jurisdiction. This, in my understanding, is what the discussion about Section 230 is about in the US: "In the United States, companies that offer web hosting services are shielded from liability for most 13 comments
Yes, that's why there's such tight filtering on AI Image Bots. So many sick people out there trying to create all the wrong images. Could be said about #porn, in particular #bdsm and other "variants" as well. However, a fake video of #HunterBiden trying to shoot #TFG in the street might really be an issue on a whole other level. I recently listened to a #podcast on this. They can already fake any voice without it being detectable, provided that there is enough sample material. Deep fakes are real, and here -- and proving you didn't do it will increasingly become impossible. Not your posts -- your face and your voice! Where is Elon when we need cryptographic brain implants to sign our every thought? Facial and voice recognition would be even worse, due to #identitytheft Last year, I declined a good offer from a financial institution because I was only possible through video conferencing and authentication. No go for me. Nowadays, you cannot know what might be illegal next year. You should try to verify your identity with Facebook sometime. They want a photo. Dated paper with your signature. Code numbers on the paper. Government ID. And it's all verified by a Bot and if the Bot can't read all that, you can't get back on because there are no humans looking at anything unless it's a special circumstance. If that were be the case, I would not be posting anymore. At all. Hundreds of thousands of people have suffered data breaches at the big SM sites. If that info goes to a) authoritarian states or b) to (some) Red states and it is about abortion ...you are in really DEEP trouble. When #Elmo tried to localize me through emphatically requesting that I enter my phone number, I decided to stay #twitterbanned ABSOLUTE #dealbreaker IMHO. @david @HistoPol @paul I had an idea of turning TOTP into a kind of reality-proving mechanism for anti-deepfake videos. We use it for 2FA/MFA, but flipping it inside out it could be a mathematically derivable serial number that could prove reality and time stamp. But I’m just a nobody with a chatterbox brain, so pffft. ;) Sounds thrilling. But #DeepFakes are only my second concern. With the increasing number of authoritarian #GreatFirewall countries and the sell-out of customer data on the #BorgSites, I am more concerned about being identifiable and subject to profiling. These are good thoughts and really important conversations to have! |

Communications Decency Act, 47 U.S.C. § 230 (―Section 230‖). protects hosting providers from
liability for content placed on these websites by their customers or other parties"
Similar laws are in place in at least some countries of the #europeanunion
So, no, this is a liability issue any instance owner should be looking into before opening it to users outside of his family.
It is not limited to toot imports.
