Expect lots more stories like this as part of a larger push to require a loicense to run FOSS code on your own computer that you paid for.
The top-rated comments where I found this were mostly "omg only allow trusted people to have this tech" (who decides what entities are trustworthy?). The most buried comments were "photoshop already exists"
Criminalize the distribution of consensual pornography. Do *NOT* require a loicense to run computer code.
I will not, for any reason, be obtaining a loicense to run code on my god damned computer. Period. This is not up for negotiation.
I've been photoshopped into compromising positions, too. I've been framed and jailed on fabricated evidence. At no point did I call for a loicense to be required to have an email account.

@r000t normal people should just embrace the plausible deniability the AI fakes give. photography essentially is worthless as evidence now. video will soon be worthless. instead they choose to be triggered that someone might do pr0n with all the pictures they posted out of vanity for the whole fucking world to see, as they got zero impulse control.
legislators want AI to be gone because of the implications for evidence. they want the fun tools to create incriminating shit to jail everyone of bother.
@bonifartius ^^^^^^
The response to this tech is to breathe a sign of relief. If actual nudes of you leak, you can point and say "oh, those darned kids and their AI porn machine"
@r000t how anyone still can think "will not happen" after the last few years is a mystery to me :)
@bonifartius It's very telling that people are more concerned about fappery than being framed for a crime and jailed or put to death.
It's the normalcy bias. Nobody ever thinks it'll happen to them.
