The head of child safety at meta just caught in a sting attempting to sext with someone he assumed was a 13 year old but was actually an agent for Predator Poachers of Long Island.
Get your kids off meta. They certainly shouldn't be spending any time alone with closed chat settings.
Start banning their services for a longer and longer every time it happens cutting them from sweet profit and I'm pretty sure they will find then very efficient ways to moderate content and budget to do so (their are most wealth companies in the world).
Until then they will have little interest in true solution and try to push the cost away to society (use public instead of own money)...
Desperately trying to find a use-case for their inferior #AI. I feel like their idea pool was always at absolute 0 but now it's going even below that.
Let's have #MetaAI raise our kids everyone!

Meta is testing an AI bedtime story app for people with no imagination | TechCrunch
At last, a tech company has found a way to outsource humanity's oldest pastime: using our imaginations.Amanda Silberling (TechCrunch)
🐍 Not shocked by #Meta or the kind of people they put in charge of their “digital experiences for kids”¹.
Exactly the kind of person to entrust with social media #ageverification (calls, live videos, photographs etc.).
I mean they already love scanning messages for child sexual abuse material via #ChatControl².
☑️ Entrust children's data to the people literally caught exploiting them, all under the banner of protecting kids?

RE: hcommons.social/@fgraver/11692…
“The transformation element and the poster design appear to reference the politically charged sci-fi film They Live (1988), in which the main character encounters a pair of sunglasses that not only expose the extractive messaging of advertisements but reveal that humanity is being controlled, subdued, and exploited by a secret population of aliens masquerading as people. In the film, it’s later revealed that some humans have accepted monetary bribes to collaborate with the aliens.“
Brilliant.

..it is unacceptable for eyeware cameras to do the same thing with its surroundings.
Explain toe, why there needs to be an upload channel (if there is one so far) or even a permanent-storage (flash?) chip?
5) In some cultures, it is offensive to even take a picture without first asking consent.
From my point of view, filming me, in particular storing the pictures as you go, is offensive and unacceptable.

3.) Why must there be a recording function? Biological eyes don't record, neither should mechanical aids.
4.) Likewise, we've all read the articles about these driving surveillance outfits, better known as #TESLAs, constantly filming its environment and its interior. (TESLA operators are reported to have made fun of their clients while observing them in the cars).

I can see your point, Elena, the glasses are but a tool. (Also, I've worked with people with disabilities.)
So is a handgun, regarding which people in most countries think that it's distribution to people should be minimized.
Also, many people have concerns even about #SecurityCameras in public spaces with security issues.
So, I'd like to throw in a couple of discussion points for all:

Meta Now Lets Anyone Use Your Instagram Photos in AI Images—Unless You Opt Out

"Thirty-three states have banded together to sue Meta, alleging that the company was exploiting its young users on Instagram and Facebook for profit, including by collecting data from children without parental consent."
The damages could be as high as $1.4 trillion, nearly the same as Meta's market capitalization at just above $1.5 trillion.

Meta's Teen Safety Case Just Became a $1.4 Trillion Existential Threat
Meta faces damages almost equivalent to its roughly $1.5 trillion market value.Ece Yildirim (Gizmodo)
#Meta has been up to no good for a while - always?
Is $1.4 trillion a reasonable amount for these cases? Who knows.
Is it reasonable compensation for all the evil they’ve done? I’d argue yes.
It’s essentially their entire market capitalization as a penalty.
