See this? This means it's working. This is something we can consider a win, but it's still not enough. Unless Discord oficially states to never use ID verification or face scans ever again, I will still fight, and I encourage you to do the same. And remember why this is happening in the first place, Discord is not the main culprit, governments are, bills that force social medias to control children will result in ID verification. The only way to control children on the internet should be with parental tools on their devices, not on social medias themselves. Even if Discord backs down completly, discordless.com will still be running, because I think it's better to switch to decentralized options to not let this situation happen again.

Due to the massive wave of backlash, Discord is postponing its global age verification until the second half of 2026. >This gives time to add more verification methods (like credit card options being discussed) and improve transparency. >Some teen safety defaults (like stricter settings for under-18 estimates) are still rolling out in phases. >They are also planning better features, such as improved spoiler channels for handling mature or hidden content.

SPOILER ALERT: if bringing down the largest child sex trafficking ring will “collapse” your government, your government needs to collapse.

Scanner Traffic-- Fort Worth 🇺🇸
From Roanoke Police So many people are probably wondering: what is the difference between freezing rain and sleet? I mean, they can’t be that different, right? Well, we picked something completely at random—and in no way related to police work—to showcase the difference between the two. Freezing rain is liquid rain that freezes on contact and takes the shape of whatever it lands on, creating a smooth glaze on surfaces. Sleet is rain that has already frozen and then sprinkles onto roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces. Both make driving dangerous. So whether we get a smooth glaze of ice or a sprinkle on the roads this weekend, please stay home if you can. If you must drive, please do so carefully. We donut want to have to respond to any crashes this weekend that could have been avoided.

For those who have been taken advantage of or dislike the BS going on here with GenAI and sexual assault, I want to bring your attention to the Take it Down Act that was written into law earlier this year. This act protects people from GenAI produced imagery and video if and when it is posted online without consent of the identifiable individual. Punishment includes prison time and this act should be a powerful tool for those taking action against these abusers. Congress link for the act is below.

Legal consequences vary by jurisdiction. In the US, the 2025 TAKE IT DOWN Act criminalizes publishing nonconsensual intimate images, including AI-generated ones, with penalties up to fines and 30 months imprisonment. States like California ban creation/distribution of deepfake porn, with civil suits possible. Users requesting such could face charges; AI creators might face lawsuits if enabling it. Consult a lawyer for specifics—I'm not legal advice.

as a reminder: AI cannot generate knowledge. It cannot create knowledge. It cannot find new information. It can only mix information that has already been found and written and input into computers by humans.

Fun fact, when a cabinet level secretary violates copyright, in a case like this that is not fair-use, and is done on an official account: -It is the entire US government that is liable. The Franklin publishers can now sue the federal government directly for damages. This dumbass administration cannot help themselves.

I’m about to give evidence in Parliament on AI & copyright. I’ll say: - there’s no excuse for ai companies not to pay for training data; they mostly don’t simply because a critical mass of ai companies decided not to - suggestions that licensing is not required under the law are wildly misleading: openai lost in court in germany, and in the US the judge in a case vs meta said many instances of training are unlikely to be fair use - the primary reason ai companies hide their training data is fear of getting sued - governments should make ai companies reveal their training data so that people can defend their rights You can watch here: parliamentlive.tv/event/index/00…

I did what 99% of creators think is impossible - I legally defeated YouTube. How does YouTube react? They're pretending it never happened. Let me tell you a story that proves the system is designed to crush creators - even when you WIN legal case and the law is on your side 👇 ➡️ June 2024: My channel "Chase Car" (20k subs) gets demonetized for "reused content." I appeal. A HUMAN reviewer checks everything - my editing timeline, voiceovers, scripts. They email me: "This is original content, you follow all the guidelines." Monetization restored. I'm relieved. A human verified me. I'm safe now. ➡️ November 2024: I wake up to find my entire channel TERMINATED. Same content. Same videos. Different result. Reason: "Spam, deceptive practices and scams policies". Wait... what? A human JUST cleared me months ago. Since I was verified by a YouTube employee, I knew my content was fine. I was creating EV news/car review videos that the YouTube Team had already accepted. Yet, the AI bot didn't care this time. I appeal → INSTANT rejection from the AI bot. Most creators give up here. But as a European Union citizen, I have the opportunity to defend myself as a creator using European Union law. I filed a formal case with ADROIT, an official European Union certified dispute body. March 2025: Case filed. July 23, 2025: Decision arrives (attached) The verdict: ✅ "Complaint is UPHELD" ✅ "YouTube's termination was NOT RIGHTFUL" ✅ "YouTube failed to specify violating content" and my channel should be reinstated. An independent legal body ruled YouTube was WRONG. The best part? YouTube defended itself during the process but could not show what I had violated. I WON. Here's where it gets terrifying - My channel is STILL terminated. I've been emailing YouTube's legal team for 4 MONTHS. Bot replies and complete silence. I never gave up; I fought fairly for my rights as a creator using the tools I had, and I won fair and square. Yet, they're acting like it never happened and the decision doesn't exist. Think about that for a moment. Even when you: ➡️ Follow every rule ➡️ Have a YouTube employee confirm that your content follows the policies ➡️ Win an official legal case ➡️ Have a documented decision that your channel should be reinstated ...YouTube's AI system just ignores you, and contacting a human is impossible. If they can do this to me AFTER I won, what chance does any creator have? I'm not giving up. I am filing a complaint with the Irish regulator @CNaM_ie to force YouTube to honor the decision. But I need your help: RT this and tag @TeamYouTube . Make them respond, so they can't pretend this isn't happening. Because if they can ignore a legal ruling, no creator is safe. #YouTubeAIWrongedCreators @YouTube @YouTubeCreators @YouTubeInsider

An AI deepfake was submitted as evidence in a California court. This appears to be one of the first instances - but likely won't be the last. Think about the repercussions: people could be wrongly convicted. We MUST regulate this technology before it destroys lives.
