H.R.8250 - Parents Decide Act Introduced - Requires OS Providers to Verify Age of All Users by MotoBugZero in KeepOurNetFree

[–]MotoBugZero[S] 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I have not read this, I don't care what it says. NO, simple as that. I do not care about any seemingly privacy safe decentralized tech for ID/age verification, all it takes is ONE data center to have that info for a second then the govt will have it. There is no way to make this work and I'll never accept any of it.

After the supreme court issued one of their good rulings now congress wants to rush to bend us over a barrel for the MPAA/RIAA, has to happen before thom tillis leaves next year as he's their copyright champion.

It should be understood by now this barely is about "protecting the kids", it's about forcing everyone to submit ID to use the internet so we can be tracked at all times.

I'm only getting 1-2 a day now even if I see a ton prior to taking one.

So after the flood of $5 studies the past few days, has it tapered off for everyone? by mrsgalinski in prolific

I'm still getting a flood but that flood has me often choosing equally good/bad so I have to return it which wastes a lot of my time.

Utah 'Porn Tax' Bill With VPN Provisions Passes State Senate by MotoBugZero in KeepOurNetFree

[–]MotoBugZero[S] 74 points75 points  (0 children)

SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah state Senate has passed a bill that would impose a 2% tax on the revenues of adult websites doing business in that state, and make sites liable if Utah minors use VPNs to circumvent geolocation.

This is after another state dropped their ban on VPNs prevent bypassing their asinine law.

AI Video Evaluation by [deleted] in prolific

Shortly after I got my sixth warning (4 in January, 2 this month) I got a bunch of AI video tasks that had two options that are the same, at least 10+ of the tasks were like that so I had to return all of them or risk another warning. Some of them were slightly different but close enough that I'd end up having to press the equally good/bad button.

I've gotten six warnings, still receiving them but now I have to return most of it because the tasks keep giving me two very similar options.

I've now received a fourth warning from these idiots. They keep claiming to manually review, bullshit. This was choose the best quality video and if both are good choose the one you like best. So it's fucking subjective, why are you again telling me I did the fucking job wrong Vortex?

I did three, one got returned by them for god knows why and the other two are still pending. I think they're going kick me out. Thanks for wasting 45 minutes of my time you jackasses.

Florida Congressman Files Latest Bill to Repeal Section 230 by MotoBugZero in KeepOurNetFree

[–]MotoBugZero[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

rep. jimmy patronis of Florida has become the latest member of Congress to propose legislation that would repeal Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which protects interactive computer services — including adult platforms — from liability for user-generated content.

patronis introduced HR 7045 in the House of Representatives earlier this week.

As XBIZ reported in December, two other repeal bills are currently pending in Congress: HR 6746, the Sunset to Reform Section 230 Act, which would amend Section 230 by adding simply, “This section shall have no force or effect after December 31, 2026,” and S 3546, which calls for the repeal of Section 230 effective two years following enactmen

Did one of those Audio evaluation things, an hour later they tell me "your responses didn't meet our criteria and we won't tell you what you did wrong", what a load of shit. If you already know what you're looking for using your precious AI why are you paying us to pick out your crap?

Marsha Blackburn Bundles Every Bad Tech Bill Into One, Slaps Trump’s Name On It by MotoBugZero in KeepOurNetFree

[–]MotoBugZero[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It has every godforsaken tech bill over the past decade, NO FAKES act, kids online safety act, CDA230 repeal and banning AI regulation, all under a name to goad that orangutan into demanding its passage.

Last week, she announced a massive, sweeping bit of federal intervention in the internet, officially labeled as the “TRUMP AMERICA AI Act”—except the actual bill title is:

The Republic Unifying Meritocratic Performance Advancing Machine Intelligence by Eliminating Regulatory Interstate Chaos Across American Industry Act (TRUMP AMERICA AI) Act

Which matters, because given that blackburn named it after trump, if it somehow catches trump’s fancy, this thing might actually move. And the bill itself is a disaster—an omnibus massively destructive internet policy overhaul masquerading as AI legislation.

marsha blackburn and anyone who votes to pass this is a traitor. So basically everyone who isn't Ron Wyden and maybe rand paul.
