As an avid twitter user, I encounter a lot of hate speech on twitter. When I report people, it seems those that are verified get away with it while those with no blue tick are temporarily or permanently suspended, even for the exact same behaviour. Twitter isn't thoroughly awful, though some thoroughly awful people get verified blue ticks and continue to pollute the internet
.
Why do stories like this come conflated with things like missing/exploited children? It seems that "protecting children" is the gateway to all manner of surveillance. I think, perhaps, they consider us to be those children.
I searched Pornhub for deepfake. "We're sorry, but the requested search cannot be found. Broaden your search." Slashdotted? I only want to see a technical demo. Any links?
In the Facebook movie, Zuck scrapes Harvard college websites for portraits of students to create a "hot or not" type game. Years later Cambridge Analytica scrapes facebook profiles. Sure demonstrates how insecurely your data is held.
Didn't I read a slashdot story a couple of days ago how Google Chrome is usurping the web by insisting on being the "browser of choice"? Google are really pushing it, and I think they might get away with it. https://tech.slashdot.org/stor...
You know, in all the reporting of the Samsung Note 7 *FAIL* I hadn't considered the effects on the production chain for this first-world phone. I hadn't read the story. Hadn't overheard it in conversation. It's not on TV. If I was more paranoid than usual, I might be concerned that the "sprawling industrial town" in the Pho Yen area might be some kind of planned "illuminati" grand experiment in economics. I'm really not that paranoid. Honest
It just kinda looks that this is a warning shot. Maybe.
Technically, they could refuse service to adblock users. Whether that would be moral... Well thats quite entirely another matter.
I'd fully expect the "algorithmic framework" has commercial uses too, particularly in advertising. And no doubt it could also be used to track networks of assorted "anti-socials". I guess that lacks the public appeal of the spin they actually used: "counterterrorism and the containment of infectious disease".
'French authorities did not respond to requests for comment but lawyers said that the warrants were issued under state of emergency laws, imposed after the terror attacks that killed 130 people earlier this month.
The author and climate change campaigner, Naomi Klein, accused French authorities of “a gross abuse of power that risks turning the summit into a farce”.'
Robot horses with A.I. that can negotiate a battlefield are a reality already. Artificial Intelligence poses an increasing potential threat.
Give a dexterous robot A.I. behaviour, and it becomes a threat, and - with access to weapons - potentially deadly.
The interface between behavioural and physical "presence" needs taming. A combination of programmatic behaviour and physical intelligence could work well. Maybe it's only a matter of time before we're all f**cked by the machine(s): https://www.youtube.com/watch?... [advert for upcoming [ Channel 4, UK ? ] entertainment]
This kind of thing has happened before It's a huge technical achievement that it doesn't happen often enough to really remember the last time.

Well, I'm not at all shocked and rushing to turn off the setting. Having your location tracked when not using the app - who doesn't expect that?
Internet laws are an international mess.
Underage much?

Is there any point in installing this extension on a mac?

Is it surprising that this is still legal (at least in some countries)?

Same thing with Gaydar. Both founders fell off high balconies, several years apart. Coincidences can seem significant. Usually, they're not.
This isn't grammatically correct.
Bollocks. It's all on the device?... no wi-fi... no 4G... 16GB... My fat arse!
They should be looking for flaws in the algorithms. Impossible with neural nets.

£1.6 million. About 260 times the usual UK settlement for a broken leg at work.
And Heil Trump!
Thanks Apple. Cool and fair as always. What could possibly go wrong with that?
It sounds like a screenwriter having a psychotic episode.
