Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If only we could have seen this coming somehow, and prepared for it
I'm going to have to get my shocked face out of storage.
Want me to pick yours up whilst I'm there?
I actually see a positive in AI.
Ever got nudes leaked? Well now you can just claim they are deepfakes. Its so much relieving that you can just dismiss any photo or videos of you doing embarassing things as deepfakes.
I'm gonna be really honest, I think a big part of what feels violating about people seeing your nudes in the first place is being sexualized without your consent, and losing agency over who you allow yourself to be sexualized by
That's not any different with deepfakes. I don't think that'd actually make that person feel much better. Like maybe they can save face on the fact that they took nudes depicting themselves in whatever way, but the thing that I think does the most emotional damage isn't actually changed or affected by saying "it's not actually me, those are deepfakes" :(
Your partner and family members may know particular hidden features of your body to tell if it is a deepfake or not, so it is still somewhat damaging in private even if it isn't in public.
Tried that, but unfortunately, I have a distinctive tattoo in a distinctive place.
This is a low priority given the serious issues raised here, but I feel like a portmanteau of sex and extortion was a bad call
