    I’m not going to listen to a low rate podcast, but I can see how this argument might be made. Lots of women have faced growing problems with AI and deepfake nudes with disgusting examples easily found all over and unfortunately to all ages. Taylor Swift has actual power. This issue hitting her, impacting her, and being so public is something that might actually cause lawmakers to do something rather than most state lawmakers, and federal lawmakers, that have been sitting on their asses. It’s a clickbait title I’m betting meant to trigger angry people, but I could see an argument of “unfortunately it took a massive public figure to make this very real issue for thousands, if not millions, of women to finally be taken up and listened to.”

      So, all we need then is:

      • Taylor Swift to have shows cancelled due to climate change
      • Taylor Swift to experience homelessness and live off measly disability benefits for some time
      • Taylor Swift having trouble getting healthcare or dental care
      • Taylor Swift having bad quality service in livestreams due to the cellular and internet oligopoly
      • Taylor Swift cancelling shows outside of Europe until public transit infrastructure improves

      Then government and people will actually pay attention to the problems in our society and work on fixing them.

    I i actually think it’s a good thing too, but probably not for the reasons mentioned ( didn’t read the thing but wanted to give my opinion on the subject for discussion anyway):

    There is no real way to prevent this. Legislation will always play catch up, while detecting fakes becomes ever more difficult.

    The only possible solution in my opinion is to embrace it. Create porn, lots of everyone, the more the better. Encourage it, in fact.

    The objective must be to destigmatize this before it becomes so rampant that it destroys lives all over the place. Make it so ubiquitous that everyone has plausible deniability if their content gets leaked or someone creates porn of them with malicious intent; and/or nobody gives a shit any more because it’s everywhere and normalized.

      In other words: women should just shut up and accept sexual harassment and bullying because men can’t help themselves.
