that’s kinda understandable tbh
You’re right and I hate it. The rich and powerful should have fewer protections. Not more
Everyone should be protected from having their consent violated, regardless of how despicable of a human they are. Human rights extend to all. The right to consent is non negotiable. We should just guillotine them instead. Quick and painless, but gruesome enough to set a good example.
We can’t post videos, but he can spew hatred and lies? And his videos of Trump Gaza? Makes sense.
He never posts on bluesky. That kind of hatred gets you banned there as well. The standards are there.
Some people get off on toe sucking and porn is produced featuring it. If you put someone else’s face in porn that they didn’t consent to be in you’re on the wrong side of ethics.
Those horrible bastards are more wrong and should be stopped, but nonconsentual porn isn’t right.
If you put someone’s face in anything they didn’t consent to.
This isn’t porn specific and even if it was, almost everything is someone’s “thing”.
Would the fediverse be able to handle something like this differently?
It just depends on the instance you’re on. The tankie instances, it’s gone.
The non consensual part would be my poor eyes seeing it but I’m not on Bluesky because it’s a corporate imitation of federation
Is it? I thought it was just an imitation of Twitter. In what way does it even pretend to be federated?
You can spin up your own Bluesky instance
…which is still managed by the Bluesky central server and can’t connect to peer instances without that server.
How else would you pretend to be federated besides saying you’re federated when you aren’t?
Where did they say that? I’m not claiming they didn’t, I just haven’t heard about it.
I’m a little dumb as to these things, what does federated mean ?
So, non-federated means one company/organization has full control over some product/service/website (like Twitter, Reddit, etc).
Federated means that individuals can independently run instances of some product/service/website, and all those instances can talk to one another and share/sync data (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc).
The tech stuff is above my pay grade but essentially my understanding is the code is open source and one could start their own server on the platform theoretically but no one does
And yeah, a “federated” (but not in practice) Twitter clone
Per the original article:
Update: After this article was published, Bluesky restored Kabas’ post and told 404 Media the following: “This was a case of our moderators applying the policy for non-consensual AI content strictly. After re-evaluating the newsworthy context, the moderation team is reinstating those posts.”
Wait, you mean to tell me this meme didn’t have the full context included? Am I to believe that I shouldn’t take memes seriously and get into fights on the internet with strangers?!
404media is great as always. Interesting comments about the legality of this.
Newsworthy context?
It was playing on all the screens in a govt. building for 5 minutes. The staff didn’t know how to stop it so someone was running around manually unplugging screens. I’d say that’s pretty newsworthy
In essence i agree but in context of the strategy of flooding the media i cant help but feel like for every something like this, which is funny and In some way hopeful but not a ongoing major issue we are missing something else.
It was playing on a ton of government TVs and no one knew how to turn it off. That leads to some articles.
more articles of impeachment for XLVII then? Methinks he’s already attained some kind of record with Guinness, no?
Don’t hurt the poor fascists’ feewings, y’all!
Womp womp, that didnt take long. Only downhill for Bluesky from here on.
Relax they put it back up
What does that change? Its about the system and their ability to do so from a central control point. Bluesky was doomed before it started with how it is set up and governed.
Exactly. At least with Mastodon and all Fediverse platforms you don’t have some overlord who can just remove anything on a whim.
Bluesky was never the solution to the Twitter problem.
Yes you do? If the moderator or admin of your instance doesn’t like something, it’s gone.
Sure you could post to another instance, but the line of posting to another instance or posting to another service is a thin one.
I fully agree that Bluesky is far from the distributed haven it might claim to be, but just because it makes a decision that any Fediverse instance might have made doesn’t mean it’s over.
Bluesky has problems, but those problems are still within the realm of fixable. Fediverse alternatives may be better, but Bluesky is still fine.
An instance mod isn’t the same as corporate ownership who can purge anything from anywhere at any time.
I hope you are joking, you are saying this as if one person runs the entire company lmao

The fact it was taken down tells you everything you need to know about BS.
All it means is that one moderator made a dumb decision. But I’m sure that’s never been a problem on the fediverse.
Dunno why blow it out of proportion, either a moderator with bias or mass reports from fans of their daddy being made fun of, which in return triggered an automatic removal of the post.
To think people are joining Bluesky like it’s totally different to Xitter…
The sooner the enshittification happens the more likely they are to learn
Well, someone link it already!
How do we really know it was nonconsensual though?
I guess this normalizes foot fetishes. They’re gonna be fucked when people start sexually fetishizing people who are fully clothed in photographs
Start?
Yeah, I live in Utah and that shit has been going for years here. Thirsty people gonna thirst.
What
Huh? I can still see it.
Edit: oh I see. One of the posts that included the video was deleted for nonconsensual explicit content and then restored after users protested.
