Substack and similar platforms could face legal exposure for user-generated content as Section 230 repeal removes their core liability shield, forcing stricter content control to avoid lawsuits.
So we go back to mailed newsletters? Some substack readers in Australia are being biometricked already. The bad guys are still on the march like robots that never eat or sleep.
I just read somewhere that in a year from now, UPS seems to want the end of snail mail. But I only read the title, and God knows where I read it. I know for a fact though, that Denmark has no more general mail delivery, only private (and expensive) and what used to be their UPS is now a package delivery only.
I have been wondering.....the US mail seems to have many problems lately - maybe orchestrated? Hard to see through envelopes so everything will have to move online.
when I moved here in small town Georgia we had a local distributing system delivery seldom later than the next day. then all mail had to go to the next bigger town over, delivery sometimes taking 4, 5 days. Last year everything moved to Atlanta! the first 2 months all payments were too late due to the slow service - thankfully most knew what was happening and waived the late fees. Mail now takes 7 or more days to reach destination. In fact a mailing from California gets here quicker than one from our own state. If you need to post something for our own town, it is better to hand-deliver it yourself.
That is true here as well in small town Texas. They are also trying to do away with home delivery and use those community boxes - makes it easy on the thieves:(
In the end we might all have to move to Russia! Contrariwise to what BBC and other news outlets suggested, there is no internet interruption at all. A few people in Moscow for work found out to their surprise that they were without internet, after posting their tube channel, their instagram, and their work related posts!
One of them just showed images of their supermarkets better filled than ours here in the US. If the language were not so difficult I might still do it. But Russian is terribly hard.
As usual, daffy-nitions are extremely vague and open-ended. What is the hidden agenda? I would guess some topsy-turvy-twisty-skuldrugery with the intent to destroy freedom of speech and freedom of everything eventually.
Substack is already rapidly sliding down this slippery slop by requiring digital IDs in the UK and Australia, and by censoring which articles can be shared in the US.
★ Bottom line: If you don't host your content on your platform, you don't own it. Period.
Writing style is a human signature so to speak. I've come across some writers whose style seemed to change drastically and suddenly. I think it fair to say that author switched to AI. Who hasn't been duped by AI? When fakes step into the realm of reality, we have a big problem and where does the buck stop for accountability? It's virtually everywhere and it's not a true intelligence. AI poses questions with no easy answers. But I can't say I disagree with Marsha Blackburn -- we have to start somewhere, or AI will continue to produce scammers on steroids along with whatever usefulness it may produce.
It's the old 'create a problem, here's a solution you never would have agreed to otherwise routine'. And if some author switches to AI, we can vote with our feet. Removing 230 is a Trojan Horse. I seriously doubt Blackburn had anything to do with drafting that Bill. And Vance, Trump et al unload on Europe's freedom of speech problems.
Tying AI regulation to section 230 is plain stupid, unless of course the goal is to render media platforms paralyzed by fear of litigation so that all we have is regurgitated pablum. Trump thinks everything sounds wonderful if he puts his name on it.
AI; On the other hand this might force people to use AI as a tool instead of amusement park ride, and yet another rentier scheme.
We are too amused.
Liability; The laws for people in person and print are long overdue to follow digitally, including the Mann Act and many worse matters. Again- we are too amused already and the rent for some amusements unacceptable.
The woman has done nothing since going to DC....in fact she didn't do much when she was a TN state legislator either so now this? Campaign fodder and she knows this bill will never get passed. We don't need another RINO as TN Governor. VOTE MONTY FRITTS for TN Governor.
Well, it's been all of a sudden like an AI boom, rather than a baby boom. AI everywhere! You have to have great discernment to know whether a video is real or AI generated. And to have discernment you have to know the patterns of AI. Even so, it could be difficult to tell the truth from the false.
I had an instance where I thought I was connecting to a Human being on Substack. They sent a message back, and we began communicating. The first thing I noticed is that it sounded way too AI.ish. You know how they talk. It did not let on that it was not Human. But the fact is, I could tell this was not Human and so I brought it up to the entity, and next thing you know, it stopped communicating. It was AI. That AI had pretended it was Human by telling me about his family, that his wife had died and he had two children. Ha! That is outright lying.
Then I was on Academia reading a scientists paper that was sent out to the group for communicating over it. Suddenly there was this very tedious writer who didn't even follow the scientists ground of talk, on the paper published, but went off on a tangent, wasting space and disrupting the focus. I knew almost immediately that it was AI, as it had been over using the emoticons, and those type of emoticons that I don't think are even available for public use, and that AI made a real skill out of it, but nevertheless it still seemed childish. They too spoke in their first message about some family members, their 'children' dying or being dead. Like, it seems the AI use the dead family member communication as a sympathy sucking method. That AI was overboard. It was interfering in the conversation. The things written by it were chaotic and incomprehensible. It was like a load of garbage all over the page, in a place where people are most always serious and decent. I mentioned it to the scientist whose paper was being debated, that this was AI.
Another thing is, in the video department where people are looking for the unusual, to put everything together, so that we could find evidence of what is really going on out there in our world...well, when there are so many AI manipulated videos, one has a frustrating time knowing the real from the fake, and that makes getting evidence much more difficult, if wasn't difficult enough already.
So whatever is happening to curb that crazy expansion of the AI boom, is more good than not, in my understanding. It needs some self-control, like every child learns potty training when they're just starting out.

We do not have that yet. Thanks for the warning.
So, our side of substack would be blocked, because we disagree with becoming a communist country.
It's already happening, Bandit.
Substack authors are already reporting that they've been unable to repost some Substack content right here in the USA.
I know. Bill Rice.
In the end we might all have to move to Russia! Contrariwise to what BBC and other news outlets suggested, there is no internet interruption at all.

Predictable, and sad.

The irony of the "TRUMP AMERICA AI Act" protecting children.

The need to refresh myself on the allegorical ways of old Soviet humor just became more urgent.
this will either curb propaganda or cause more propaganda...time will tell!
Substack has been in their sights for a long time.
Indeed. Get everyone in one place and then drop the hammer.

Blackburn is a horror - war-monger, MAGAite, zio-christian nationalist.
This is a scary.
