    They only care about engagement and growth. Damage to our social fabric, psychological disruption, hardening of positions, suppression of critical thought, encouraging anger … Fuck it!

    meta - another state run media. fox. sinclair. spectrum. twitler. etc. They do the state’s bidding (trump) and the state says “do what you will”.

    media control = control of the masses. there’s nothing new or revolutionary about the idea, but it happens at the speed of light now. True or not.

    Facebook never cared about actual child abuse and sexual exploitation. why the hell would you expect them to give a fuck about AI generated child abuse.

    “Meta Is Refusing to Remove AI-Generated Facebook Videos of Graphic Child Abuse, Including a Baby Roasting in an Oven”

    The future fucking sucks.

    Thank You, I was literally just about to open up Facebook for the first time in a couple of weeks. Then I saw this and didn’t, I remembered why I don’t use it any more.

    Let me see if I have my pedo-billionaire glasses tinted correctly:

    School shootings are caused by violent video games, teenage depression, and propping doors open. But promoting Nazi-fascist ideology while posting videos that dehumanize others? All good!

    Moderation is completely fucked. Tried reporting shit and nothing ever happens unless one is a business tycoon, a celebrity at the level of Taylor Swift, or a government affording to formally file a complaint.

      I’m going to agree but also point out that this notion that Facebook is somehow the coalescence point for the world’s jackasses is totally delusional.

      The world is filled with morons, spend 5 minutes on any platform and you’ll see that.

      There is nothing special about the younger generation and the apps they use, they are just as fucking ignorant as the Facebook users. I mean really, spend a few minutes on any social media app and you are bombarded by the pointless thoughts of every jackass who’s ever felt they had some magic idea they just need to share.

    When I still used Facebook would regularly report imitation sites and posts pretending to be national news outlets as impersonation and misinformation. They would never do anything about it. On Instagram I’ve reported openly hateful accounts calling for violence against groups, as their account name or bio and it doesn’t violate their TOS according to the responses I’m getting.

    Unpopular opinion:

    There are actions that are illegal. Recordings of those actions is illegal. Generated material counts as art. Also movies count as art. If those show an illegal action, it is not illegal. It is art. And should be protected, whether you like it or not. Same category as freedom of speech.

      Well, maybe this stuff can be called art or free speech. However, the US constitution only guarantees that the government can’t persecute you for your expression. It says nothing about corporations or private individuals.

      Facebook is not the government. Facebook can and should do something about hateful material on its platform. People aren’t calling for the those posting AI child torture images to be arrested - they just want Facebook to stop spreading their material.

      If you decide to use AI to create child torture porn, you should at least be forced to publish it yourself. Why should Facebook help you?

      Generally that’s still true. No one is being persecuted by the government over this. But Facebook is not the government, and is within their rights to remove objectionable or distasteful material.

        Oh yes, it is within their rights to delete or allow such content. I just don’t understand why people are upset about this, as this is not the first case, this is happening. And we all should know by now that tech giants and billionaires are the last ones on this planet to have something resembling what I would call morals

        Facebook doesn’t view it as objectionable or distasteful, never has; same guys been running it since its inception as a rate your classmates site. Nothing has changed with the platform, but I do appreciate more people talking about how shitty it is.

      Give me a break with this free speech stuff, as if meta isn’t constantly deleting “legal” posts it doesn’t like for political or social reasons.

      This has nothing to do with legality, it’s a question of morality. Meta isn’t the government and we can absolutely call them out for their immoral policies.

        Absolutely. I was only talking about the legal aspect. The morality is absolutely questionable. Besides that, it is probably very distasteful as well. I just don’t see the point of being upset about something, that is neither happening the first time, nor was unexpected. It is their platform. They can do whatever they want. And we are free to not use it.

        Personal, unprofessional opinion: it plays a huge role, when it comes to a possible sentencing. Judges value factors such as intent and remorse, to adjust the sentences. However, it has to come to a case first and for that, something legally questionable has to happen. We are at the stage, where it is probably only morally questionable, but not legally.
