YouTube Adds Tool to Help Public Figures Report Fake Videos Social media companies are under pressure to crack down on so-called deepfake videos that use deceptive images of real people.

YouTube is adding a detection tool for government officials, political candidates and journalists to catch and report videos that use A.I. to display their likeness without permission, as social media companies and new laws start to address so-called deepfake videos.

Back to this again.

The Canadian politicians and right wing media types who flirt with this bullshit have to be the biggest fucking marks in the history of fucking marks.

Never fall in love with any specific social media platform. They will all betray you or fizzle out (and most likely both).

Have some fun. Make some friends. Share some ideas. Do some good.

But never forget that they're all impermanent.

"Jews don't belong in American society."

Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.

But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.

oh it's much worse than that. he's leaving Iran with an even more radical hardliner in charge.

one who already wanted to build longer range missiles and develop nuclear weapons.

one who just lost his wife and children to US* bombs.

one who knows that Trump will blink if the stock market falls.

Generally not a fan of endless sequels and reboots, but this is an adaptation of an existing anthology, and the lead actor is age-appropriate and then some

Also: Christopher McQuarrie does not make bad movies

New legislation will extend protections that help prevent disruptive protest activity around schools and introduce similar measures for places of public worship.

Royal Canadian Air Force Major Discovered on White Supremacist Dating Site The Canadian Anti-Hate Network has identified over 190 Canadian users of a white supremacist dating website, including a Royal Canadian Air Force Major.

Late last year, a white supremacist dating platform was hacked and its users leaked. One of those users is Royal Canadian Air Force Major Tristan Armstrong, who CAHN has linked to thousands of posts made on far-right forums between 2019 and 2024.
