    ideally, fake content should have no impact whatsoever on anything, and, people giving importance to it should be the ones seen as weirdos.

      It should, but high-quality fakes trick a large chunk of the population. As such, they ought to be treated in the same way as other non-consensual content

          It’s not just porn; you can deep fake pretty much anything, including racist rants and criminal acts.

          That’s a nice culture shift to push for but it’s not where we’re at. It could also be nice to have a society where nobody really has a great attachment to material things so you can just borrow your neighbors lawnmower or car and it’s no big deal at all. We don’t live in that society either so we have laws against theft.

              Imagine watching porn (as most people do, or have done in their life) and condemning the actors. I for one am very happy that people are doing the job.

              To star in a porn movie. I personally wouldn’t have a problem with it, but i know that my family and friends wouldn’t even try to understand or just ignore it, they would just see the “dirty” word porn and panic. They would panic, because suddenly they feel forced to confront themselves with the world that is behind the word.

              Ooh, I love this argument.

              “I’m an atheist so I’m above the 2.4 billion religious people on the planet”

              No, people are not ‘ingrained to be prudes’. They have values, and those values are manipulated by people in positions of power.

        This is completely fucked up - neighbors filmed me in my own apartment and apparently also played around, deepfaking the footage of me on my bed watching TV to something where i do i don’t know what.

        Some neighbors have informed me, but i never myself saw anything.

        By the way a lot of neighbors look at me, it must be pretty bad.

        I don’t know if i even want to see it and also i don’t know what to do, because i don’t know who made it.

        It all started a few years ago and from what i heard, it was initiated by neighbors that don’t like people that smoke weed. Since i worked from home since from before COVID, neighbors started talking about me. Wondering if i grow weed at home and that kind of stuff.

        I had neighbors stalking me, hiding behind trees and observing … pretty deranged

            Thanks and yeah, sometimes people around you are not nice, but you can’t let yourself down in such a situation. It’s hard to ignore the noise, but there are more important things to do, more important things happening in life.

            Things that really matter.

            I thought it would be, when it began…

            Edit: tbh i stopped telling friends or family about it, because they all said the same thing “some less, it must be paranoia”.

            It’s unbelievable, that such dynamics exist in a community. It’s as unbelievable as Trump existing and so many people hearing his words and deciding to follow his lead.

            Ah, the other thing my neighbors seem to have a massive problem with, is sexuality. I had a drunken neighbor stand in front of my window, screaming “you fucking fag, i’ll kill you”.

            I’m not even gay. That was a real mind bender.

            I think because I’m not the typical male doing male stuff. They can’t categorize me, so i must be one the “gays” in their little heads.

              In this scenario, that seems well worth pressing charges. You’re describing a harassment campaign that is well beyond anything ok. Even if you’d normally disregard a drunken fool, he knows something. If for no other reason press charges to see if you can find out wtf

                It only happened one time, i was in the kitchen and when i reached the window, be was already going down the street. I really couldn’t see who that was…

                Edit: The drunken guy screaming, that happened only once.

        I hate that people are so stupid they’ll form an opinion of someone based on evidence that’s extremely easy to fake, or no evidence at all. And then they’ll hold on to that opinion for dear life even when the dearth of real evidence is pointed out to them.

      Ideally any pornographic content, even fully engaged, consented to for publication, should have no bearing on a candidate’s ability to hold office yet…here we are.

      There was a very promising woman running for office and her onlyfans was leaked by an incel. It caused her the race.

        Right? Can we stop pretending adults are chaste priests? We have object permanence - we know everyone has a naked body despite the clothes we wear. If it’s consensual adult sex, no one should care at all.

      I’ve been internet bullied, and I never gave a shit about anything that was typed into a FB local hate group I never looked at, but the amount of stupid fucking people who want to track you down and say something about it is fucking ridiculous. I didn’t even have anyone who approched me say anything like mean or confrontational, just like this weird ‘‘I found the guy the other guy said the thing about!!!’’ But holy shit it is annoying how many other random ass people decide they need to care about this online bullshit in real life.

        Social media often acts as a drug on many people who become weird and annoying.
        i think society is just starting to react against its bad effects the same way temperance movement and prohibition was a reaction against alcohol abuse.
        We are just at the beginning of those new norms and ways to deal with it. You are part of a better future.

      Eh… identity theft sentencing, assuming you go federal, is 2 years minimum. And most cases are civil.

      I prefer fraud, which carries 5 years. Add wire fraud on top of that and now you’re talking 20 years.

        If doing it ruins the victim’s life the sentences should have an equal effect on the perpetrator’s life. So yeah I agree with your assessment too.

      Hot take: Deep fakes may be much closer to rape (and maybe should be adjudicated similarly) than they are to identity theft or fraud because of the harm they cause and because that social assault is more closely related to power and consent than a simple fraud.

        If copyright was made to protect people maybe, but as it stands copyright is another form of ownership available to those with the means to hold it and the money to enforce it in court. A whole host of not legal stuff becomes very legal once you realize the other party doesn’t have lawyers on retainer.

    This whole situation is terrible, from having realistic fake pornography made distributed of someone, to the fact that being sexually active is such a massive taboo - especially for a woman - is all absolutely terrible and ridiculous.

    These acts are obviously a kind of organized mass sexual harassment, and should be treated accordingly.

    If she had actually made porn at any point, that should not in any way be a mark on her character, least of all if (as was in this case) the creation of said content was nonconsensual.

    What a sick, terrible world we live in.

    I feel like using the apps you just use Google to find is a very stupid way to get it traced back. There’s no fucking way all those apps aren’t tracking who is uploading what, and doing facial recognition too.

    Now, granted, the providers of such content may not be bright, but I’d at least do something for a CYA when governments start outlawing and investigating.

    Javellana spoke with the news media and called out 4chan users specifically as the architects behind her ordeal

    Her worst fears were becoming reality. The more she talked about her experience, the more harassment she endured.

    Yep pretty big brain play here. The best way to get 4chan users to drop something is to call them out publicly on it :>
