Bad at description!

This has to be some kind of infantile tantrum at this point, from people who are just going to drum their heels and scream and scream, until the public allows them to pass a digital ID law. I don’t see what else it can be, really.

NEW - The government is planning a more sweeping definition for the u16s social media ban regulations which are set to be agreed by ministers this week.
Under consideration is a ban on UGC and recommender systems, which could catch websites like YouTube Kids and Spotify.

Some websites like Spotify are holding out hope of a carve out. But industry sources and MPS who were briefed this week say the system is broader than anticipated and could apply to 150 platforms.

Why am I completely unsurprised to find this a "film" by Richard Driscoll, who made infamously awful films and was sent to prison for tax fraud for bunch of false claims, like fees for filming with David Carradine. Except Carradine had died 2 weeks before, his footage was lifted from another film.

Oh now this is absolutely horrendous, I feel terrible for the original stars who got hoodwinked into participating in this AI slop, at least we still have the original movie and some of the sequels, but what an absolute dismal situation, Return of the Living Dead was one of my fav 80s horror movies.

There are so many tiny, painful details. The celeb’s wife who took girls aside at a party concerned at their age. The hangers on who passed on girls’ phone numbers to a man twice their age. This isn’t about one man - it’s about an entire culture that normalises male power and the ‘use’ of girls.

To add a bit of levity to tonight's news, Every studio's GenAI disclosure these days after they're caught:

It's hard to overstate just how much of an open secret the David Walliams story was. Before he Streisand Effect-ed it into the spotlight, everyone I know who works in publishing had a story about him being a creep or being warned not to be alone with him.

Walliams and Brand being exposed in 2026 shows how hard it is to report these stories, but also how slowly culture moves against dangerous men exploiting less powerful women. It's not that we didn't know these things were wrong in the late 1990s and early 2000s. But there was no will to stop it.

be careful with these unhinged motherfuckers you’re going to see lots more “the anti-AI people have gone too far” chatter from AI boosters declaring themselves to be AI critics, now that the money is definitely on the line you’re going to see a fuckton more bad faith the AI industry is built […]
