Everyone in the UK that has had to use this service should be phoning up their MP office to demand an explanation why a law set out (OSA) did not have adequate protections of said data.

Phone calls
Emails
Actual visits to their office.

NEW: breach of Discord age verification data.

Including some users passports & DLs

Age verification is a badly implemented data grab wrapped in a moral panic.

Mark my words, as age verification mandates expand, we'll end up more surveilled and less secure. 1/

There seems to be some confusion about how the pngtubers are priced, so here's a visual guide?? Let me know if it's understandable. I'm working on implementing it (a more refined version) into my pricesheet and form if it makes sense.

Please, if you are going to provide a reference image(s) through GDrive, either don't ignore my request to access the locked/private files or just give me a publicly accessible link.
It just makes it a whole big kerfuffle when I just want to assess what the requested commission entails. :<

This whole section really.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

I don't care either way as long as it's /succinct/. Cant stand when there's too much fluff. Also when they talk so slow in videos.
