One of the internet's most active hubs producing sexually explicit AI "deepfakes" is hiding in plain sight on 4chan, where users on a NSFW board have victimized countless women and girls. The problem is getting worse, and it seems no is trying to stop it.

the intentional conflation of "criminal" with "incompetent" that liberal outlets will use to avoid direct criticism of this administration should be called out at every turn
At the funeral of Rev. Jesse Jackson. Rep. Jones and I walk in his footsteps. Our story isnβt possible without the work, advocacy, Organizing, and struggle of Rev. Jackson. Rest in power.

Matt Welsh Head of AI Systems at Palantir 4h Returning from an overseas deployment supporting advanced technology development for the armed forces (and, yes, being somewhat vague), I'm reflecting on how my work at Palantir may be the most meaningful thing I've done in my career. If you like solving hard problems and building things that really matter, we're hiring -- drop me a line and let's chat. likesupport 19 1 comment Liz Fong-Jones Field CTO @ honeycomb.io 1s Matt, I don't understand how to reconcile the thoughtful and empathetic engineering leader I knew when we worked together at Google, and you choosing to work at Palantir under the Trump administration, with Palantir assisting in carrying out some of the worst human rights abuses enacted by DHS, and openly embracing the lawless, white supremacist agenda of President Trump.
I just... can't any more.

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post β including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East β based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.
if only certain Democratic lawmakers had an ounce of this resolve
π― in many ways, the Musk buyout was the event that put me on my big tech breakup arc
very vindicating of my past decisions to not pay attention to him ever
just spitballing but some of it might have something to do with 15 years of sociopathic behavior culminating in the enthusiastic embrace of violent fascism

This is murder. ICE routinely deposits released detainees far from their home just to be cruel. Itβs standard practice. To do this to a blind man on a wet cold winter day in Buffalo is to know you are potentially sending him to his death.
democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly
It should be a five alarm for all Americans that the Pentagon is going to the mat to force an AI company to let the Defense Department use its powerful technology to surveil Americans. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/24/u...

Bluesky has not failed--it's literally just a website.
The left, the progressive movement, and American civil society have failed to organize a boycott of the neo-Nazi propaganda website that's central to political media. That's not on Bluesky.
This is exactly right. The Onion quietly left Twitter a month ago and... our weekly subscribers went up. It's because we're doing well here, on Instagram and on YouTube.
As a business, being on Twitter is somewhere between useless or detrimental, unless you're selling boner pills.
