Thanks @conorom.bsky.social for writing this piece for us setting out the legal position on X and CSAM… in short, yes, they could be prosecuted. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...
Ireland could prosecute Twitter/X for AI 'child porn' deepfakes
The horrific child sex abuse material produced every day by Grok is already banned under Irish law. The real test is if we are ready to enforce that law against large tech companies

The pirate radio era may be over as such, but the spirit of such endeavors remain & young people will always seek an important alternative to the mainstream. *Yes that is a mobile phone that weighed more than my MacBook does now www.echolive.ie/entertainmen...
Stevie G: Spirit of pirate radio still strong
As long as we have a mainstream, we will need an underground, and the spirit that powered the pirates will continue in other ways, writes Stevie G.

PinkPantheress really just nailed her vibe practically from the off & ran with it. Great music for the age that we are in and one of the best users of social media too 💫

Had to drive to and from to Longford the other day (longford story) but the journey was made better by revisiting Sly & the Family Stone’s whole album discography in chronological order. The post “Riot” albums are so underrated the whole catalogue is so full of absolute gems 💫

My @thisisthenewschool series in @corkcitylibraries has come to end for the summer but I’d like to thank Margaret, Ben & the team for hosting us every month. We are back on September 27th. As always, music is a two way street and I am learning from the youngsters too.
Sad to learn of the passing of Siobhan O’Dowd, a great contributor to Cork who was unbelievably active in the community for decades & always full of good humour and encouragement too. Here she is taking over my decks at the Rainbow Picnic a few summers ago 🏳️🌈
Sunday chill out set at Cortado on the Marina ☀️☕️🎧
