CW: naked chests
I just saw a video commenting this project. It’s about the censorship of female nipples by Instagram and how a number of AI judge the gender of a person.

I never realized how the language of the terms made everything so very silly. As usual, to conform to conservative binary notions, they invented a concept without base to hide the bigotry. There’s no way a nipple can be visually female, but it will redirect the conversation and shield them from most disputes.
It’s not anything new, but I liked the project and it’s a good reminder of the issue and that we shouldn’t accept to talk in terms that deny reality.
I have a crazy idea - don’t censor anything. Then you don’t need fancy AI of a huge team of moderators as content police.
No censorship works for some communities and places, but in anonymous internet spaces it tends to lead to literal crime
i would say advocating for uncensored images everywhere is a pretty bad idea for many many reasons
