Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

I am extremely confused as to why the UK government and police are saying Grok’s mass-scale CSAM generation is an issue for Ofcom.

This isn’t about X failing to moderate CSAM, which is an Online Safety Act issue. It is about the company and its technology being actively involved in its generation.

A true crackdown on set piece holding would lead to three or four additional penalties a match and Arsenal would be MAJOR beneficiaries becuase Arsenal attackers get held on every single corner.

Somehow, I don't think it's going to play out like that, though.
“Cracking down on set piece holding” is the hardest thing to apply consistently because there’s some holding on every set piece. Once again it’s evidence of PGMOL’s prime directive: find ways the chalk off goals. They’re absolutely out of their minds.

1.2 million children dying.

It’s because the stated role of vAR is referee mistake focused (clear and obvious etc) NOT correct decision focused.

So you can have things that are clearly on review a foul or whatever, but because it doesn’t fit some criteria on whether it was a reasonable mistake they pretend they can’t see it
