the theft of intellectual property is at the bottom most wrung of the issue with generative AI

generative AI has literally made nearly every aspect of human experience worse and horrible, not just online, but outside too

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Reject the KOSA ACT and call lawmakers to completely oppose them

How does requiring Age Verification to every post help in anyway? The only accomplishment it will achieve is stripping away of our rights and make us vulnerable to 🧊 who targets literal civilians

Stop KOSA
KOSA is a censorship bill that won’t make kids safe. Instead, it'll put all internet users at risk, especially youth. If you believe in a free and open internet, tell your lawmakers to reject #KOSA!

With Phone Bans with the Bell-to-Bell Act, Digital IDs for Social Media thanks to "SAFE" Act and as well with a complete KOSA and Screen Act

Everything on the internet will be gone and soon be only accessible to the wealthy or selected few

CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES TO REPEAL THEM OR OPPOSE

alongside calling, EFF also has a site that lets you email your representatives and demand they protect section 230!

You need to contact your representative and demand that Section 230 be protected, not repealed, NOW.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.

We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

It's not your fault they're using you and the science, liberties, and even freedom all used to killing as many as possible.

All we can go about is taking legal actions, protesting against wars, boycotting and voting!

So go and vote on November 4th in your local city.

Throwing this out:

"Total War" means channeling ALL RESOURCES AND ENERGY into the war this means every citizen was forced to contribute into the war.

Meaning everyday concerns such as food, health and fun are put aside to put into war.

Every company and every resource is allocated into war

The biggest huge e-waste and security nightmare ever

This violates our Right to Repair so call your elected officials or businesses to join in campaign to call off the end of 10.
Ask local repair shops to help install linux or other operating systems such as chromium.

Lesson here is always check up your loved ones to see if they're okay! This person's family had passed away due to the death threats.

Layla messaged me this morning. She only has 8 days left to meet her goal and she is only 2k away out of 8k.

Like, comment, leave an emoji, leave a watermelon or a flag- anything on the art post to get the word out. Or on any of the art others have done for her to get seen! ♥️

However, completely sheltering kids from natural parts of human behavior will accomplish nothing positive for the kid as they grow older.

If even me, a strictly asexual person, can be damaged by porn censorship, then allosexual people can get hit even harder.

Education over Censorship. Always.
