So, is this correct ?
It’s now ok to infiltrate a tv channel and pull whatever the administration dislikes and pull possible unfavorable stories.

But when another administration “asks” to have misinformation and stolen revenge porn taken down

That’s “censorship”?

USA is the only country in the world that has not ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (after Somalia ratified in 2015). One of the obstacles - the USA is the only country in the world that has life in prison without parole for children.

Fuck everyone who uses the term, "parent's rights". Children have rights. Parents have responsibilities.

GenAI cannot summarise anything because it cannot analyse anything because there is no intelligence there. This entire premise starts with a lie and the deceit builds from there.
The “AI” has not read the book. Even if the book was in its training data, it has just absorbed it as a set of statistics. It will juggle you a “summary” that might or might not relate to the conclusions of the actual text. The only way you’ll know is to read it yourself.
This is one of the reasons I remain horrified by seeing @historians.org suggest "ways to use gAI" that included this:

Hilarious video by The Wall Street Journal newsroom, who ran circles around the chatbot running the vending machine. My favorite part was when they convinced it that it was Soviet Russia in 1962 and it should offer everything for free. m.youtube.com/watch?v=SpPh...

Since everything is awful and it’s nearly Christmas, who’d like some pictures of ship’s cats? Don’t worry dog lovers, a canine thread’s coming soon! Let’s start with Tiddles, sitting in his favourite spot on the carrier HMS Victorious in 1943 (he liked playing with the bell rope)

The Roding is London’s largest forgotten river. It endures every modern indignity: scythed by motorways and concrete bridges; choked with sewage and rubbish; canalised, fly-tipped, thickened with the polluted slime of London clay. It is a forbidding place to call home. youtu.be/7sjOGOguq5A
A London barrister declared a river sacred. This is what happened next.

One similarity between fascists and their enablers is the persistent belief that anyone can do any job and that expertise is just a cudgel for liberal elitists to beat them with.

I should have known this was coming. DWP and local councils have been behaving as if it’s already law for years, despite it being in direct contravention of Data Protection law.
@goodlawproject.bsky.social another one for you?
Poorest Britons lose right to financial privacy.

The Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Act 2025 empowers the state to 24/7 snoop on the bank accounts of recipients of universal credit; employment and support allowance; state pension credit.

No court order needed. No right of appeal.

This doesn't surprise me at all. Streeeting (like Starmer) never has to get hands dirty since the Labour Right just ratfuck to get their way. The idea of having to meet with people who are ideologically opposed to them isn't something they're interested in (or capable of) doing
As the resident doctors strike comes to an end, the BMA makes it clear that they want to work constructively with Wes Streeting to end the dispute.

The problem? Wes Streeting has been ignoring the resident doctors & refusing to negotiate with them for months.

The frequency with which this is happening is so bleak and depressing. Knowing a book has no AI before beginning it, and paying for it, and spending time on it, shouldn’t be a guessing game.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

And that digitising requires highly-skilled staff (often wildly underpaid) to do a lot of work in arranging, describing and preserving both the OG documents and digital surrogates. Nothing works without good metadata & long-term thinking.
When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
Seems like it's worth posting this one again.

Whole administration, then: it's going to be a concentration camp and we couldn't be more aroused

Whole administration now: woah we can't let this piece publish it makes it look like a concentration camp

Just a few months ago the entire administration was gleefully posting AI Ghiblislop bragging about how cruel and inhumane the camp would be, explicitly referencing racist memes of alligator babies, etc.

And *now* they're suddenly worried about looking cruel and inhumane
CBS News EIC Bari Weiss had concerns about the CECOT piece, I’m told. The network decided to hold the segment pending, among other things, comment or an interview with White House officials next year…
