as a very minimum, it would make sense to demand safe-deleting the photo immediately after the verification process, with fucking prison time to someone if it is found they did not comply with that.
but that is clearly not the direction the society is going 🤷♂️
I don’t like framing things in terms of doing a bad thing = being a bad person.
premeditatedly doing bad thing = bad person
it turned out that there are, in fact, stupid questions…
what i have seen it on so far was pure slop, some random images from photobank, sometimes even with the watermark, accompanied by generated voice, so these are the ones that should really go.
might it have something to do with this?

i have already seen some “synthetic content” labels attached to random videos
giving about 5 clear indications that you’re from Ireland
now i am really curious, you wouldn’t be able to put red circle around these 5 clear indications, would you?
i am “this person”, you clown. is ireland the only country you know, or why did you decide to place me there? whatever ireland did to you must have obviously been something terrible to trigger you so much :D
exactly this, they already are, end of story, op. take your “morale” and go back to your church, you will find like-minded souls morons there.
my friend doesn’t get the joke. why should we care you are irish?
i have not found single dns that would resolve the domain (tried google dns, opendns, opennic.org, among others), so maybe it is just a config error.

hm… i am not sure if this can be config error, or some censorship child protection is happening here.
i am in eu, in a relatively liberal country where no one cares about a torrent (yet), but i am in the vodafone network, so the latter would be not out of the realm of possibility.

the headline sounds fucking scary, but i wonder what the reality really is. i am in my fourties, i remember news being printed on the paper, and i understand the media world and what the difference is between trustworthy media and tabloid.
still, lemmy is often times the first place where i see specific news, esp. regarding us politics (i am from eu) - but i choose links to reputable sources (which is not that hard, because lot of times the same info is linked 5 times from the different sources) and verify if needed.
so “gets news from social networks” would sound more ominous than i think my reality is. i don’t have tiktok, so i have no idea what the reality is there.
I can see you’re going through something really significant and distressing. While I understand you feel certain about what you’re experiencing, some of what you’re describing - the sudden overwhelming perception of hidden patterns everywhere, the intense paranoia about who to trust, and feeling like you can’t determine what’s real - are things that mental health professionals are trained to help people work through.
I’m not saying your observations about systems or power aren’t valid, but the level of distress and the way this realization hit you so suddenly after being ‘suppressed for 10 years’ suggests it would be worth talking to someone qualified to help you sort through what you’re experiencing. A therapist or counselor could help you process these feelings and thoughts in a safe space, regardless of whether this is a mental health concern or just a really overwhelming shift in perspective.
You mentioned feeling isolated and unable to talk to family or friends - that alone is reason enough to reach out to a professional who can provide that support.
Learn to program.
you probably missed this part:
I don’t reckon I could study something for college, write a book or poetry or learn a foreign language, as I couldn’t concentrate.
some home nas can also be budget friendly… or some vps, where you can start small and scale up on-the-fly when you need it.
well that would be fucked up for sure. are you suggesting any existing program works like that, or are just speculating what if?
no malicious update can force you to generate a text and file it in court as your own work.
To really be sure would require knowing what software is actually doing
i am pretty sure you do know whether you wrote a text, or it just magically spawned in front of your eyes out of thin air - you don’t need degree in computer science for that.
it is your behaviour what defines you and if you lose the memories, it will affect the behaviour, so i am inclined to say yes, you are different person then.
it is similar to when you lose a loved one to a cult, be it maga or some religious cult. they are no longer the same person. you want to get back the person they were before, but right now, even if you kidnap them and lock them in your basement, they are not the same person.
or imagine some scifi future, where we have mastered the ability to transfer your consciousness into another body.
your spouse died, and they use their body as a vehicle for some other person, who suffered terrible accident, got hit by a train and only body part that survived was their head. after emergency surgery, their consciousness is now in your former spouse’s body. is that still your spouse? no, it is the other person.
