#mnfringe show 17: Witness Loudly: storyteller Kyle Dekker puts his work as a constitutional observer into the larger context of MN’s response to ICE occupation earlier this year (and still ongoing); compelling, justifiably angry but also hopeful and funny; 1st draft of history - 5 stars
Saw Kyle Dekker's Fringe show about being a legal observer during Metro Surge. Highly recommended but I meant to put this in my review and forgot: Strike (the theater he's at) is FREEZING. Bring your sweater! minnesotafringe.org/shows/2026/w...

This is from Tidal's new AI policy going into effect July 15th. It's not an outright ban, but clearly labeling AI generated stuff and shutting off its ability to generate revenue is a great approach. Plagiarists are less likely to pollute a platform if there isn't any monetary gain.
