Well, this is a solid admission that they are going to use deep fakes to influence elections.
Noo we just demand this specific instance of deregulation because… uh, it theoretically might help small businesses!
Also why would you even care about anything other than short-term GDP increase. Are you some kind of communist?!?
“what do you mean we can’t use fake misleading videos to fuck democracy?”
So is their position that deception via impersonation is free speech?
How isn’t this immediately a red flag?
Can we join forces and spam X with a flood of Informative deep fakes of select individuals?
You could, but it would just be limited reach. There is no way to fight back using his own platform beyond just not going there.
Something that has been bothering me lately. Reasonable people who counter the toxic misinformation leaving the platform only allows the disease to grow and spread. But reality is they weren’t reaching the people that needed the dose of reality anyway. And then I realized that the algorithms have always been the disease, my feeds are my own echo chamber to drive engagement, just as theirs are. I’ve pretty much cut all social networks out. The only way to change minds is honest respectable conversation, and I am not a person to change anyone’s mind.
We’re fucked
This is what the right is doing, while the DNC is censuring their own members for simply encouraging democrats to run against their own apathetic incumbents.
You misspelled pathetic.
Something only a childish brat would even think to try
Why would they want to “influence elections”?

It’s a huge part of the business model. Social Media is valuable for its data on people, and for its ability to manipulate and influence people.
“The rules were that you guys weren’t going to fact-check.”
Delivering that line with such glee like he thought he had some sort of high ground.
Makes me sick.
Remember when this stuff was called "the quiet part’, and it was considered bad when you said it out loud?
Yeah…good times.

Cool. Let’s go with criminal impersonation, defamation, and slander/libel instead them!
X’s lawsuit claims the law’s “requirements are so vague and unintelligible that social media platforms cannot understand what the statute permits and what it prohibits.”
The issue with this argument is that social media platforms aren’t required to enforce it? https://www.sos.mn.gov/media/5626/deep-fake-overview.pdf
does anyone have the actual written law? it is hard to argue using summaries or even opinion pieces of musky boy.
Link in the first paragraph
IAs far as I read this correctly, the law prohibits creating such media but does not hold the websites accountable for publishing the media.
It does indeed sound vague as to what the social media site should do.
Next up: Elmo challenges laws that prohibit murder and child pornography, all in the name of a better world!
He had that fetish roleplay account where he pretended to be his toddler…
And the Fake News crowd goes wild! By the way, that’s conservatives and all of their media.
“How will we win if we can’t cheat?”
