"eSafety" seems to have inflated far, far beyond online forums in which Australian children are being bullied by their peers to such a degree that they self-harm/suicide.

Is the aim now to stop kids from being harmed in any interaction they have with the internet?

“Journalists at three of #RupertMurdoch’s Australian mastheads have reported deep concern after training sessions for an in-house #AITool called “NewsGPT” .

Staffers on #TheAustralian, #TheCourierMail and the #DailyTelegraph say the tool enables them to take on the persona of another writer, or to adopt a certain style, and NewsGPT will then generate a custom article.”

“In March the company’s chief technology officer, #JulianDelany, unveiled #NewsGPT and described it as a powerful tool.

A #NewsCorp Australia spokesperson told Weekly Beast: “As with many companies News Corp Australia is investigating how #AI technologies can enhance our workplaces rather than replace #jobs. Any suggestion to the contrary is false.”

#RupertMurdoch #RupertMurdoch All discussions of #FoxNews esp. #iran MUST include #RupertMurdoch. If not, you are missing a central piece of the story. Fox is the agenda-setting infrastructure of the Murdochs. Great story by @swin24.bsky.social @nikkimcr.bsky.social but needs more Rupert! 1/3

Prepping for possibility it'll be some -aligned smarmy duplicitous genocide-denying Trump-excusing corporate-adjacent crypto-libertarian access-journalist with Atlantacist verbal modulation.

We made text messages, TikTok, and our role models for children. We made a role model for children to learn news and wealth worship. We fucking made TWITTER our role model for children since year 2011.

Another excellent column by Gordon Campbell, from a couple of weeks ago, on the crusade against social media use by under-16s.

Campbell looks beyond the obvious privacy risks created by enforcing age limits, to the corporate conservative roots of the policy's Australian variant (particularly Rupert Murdoch's role in it). He mentions the way it violates teens' human rights, and limits their access to peer support;

@frankcat

And there have been many brutal, stupid, genociding, dishonest and nasty ones.

Apologies.

That was the end of the USA democratic republic AIUI.

It had always been patchy.
But it was ripped apart then.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
And all the king's horses,
and all the king's men,
couldn't put Humpty together again.

Trite, juvenille and altogether too fitting.

That was 40 days ago.

Keir Starmer does not want your dirty, un-White, Progressive, Left-wing vote, you race traitor /s

In his interview with the channel, which a recent study found to have an “obsession” with
broadcasting “overwhelmingly negative” stories about Muslims, Starmer repeated his
claim that Britain risks being turned into an “island of strangers” by immigration.

Other outlets given preferential access by the PM this week included Zhe Sun, whose
political editor went on to laud Starmer’s latest plans as being “all good stuff —

if Labour can get it through the legion of woke types and hand-wringers on their own
backbenches.”

I think my biggest frustration with the world is the lack of focus on Wikipedia style common ground. Humanity in total, the entire #PaleBlueDot world wide, should be trying to build a system of drill-down levels of detail on all important topics of life, survival, world peace, compassion, love, food safety, food supply, etc.

There are so many Tower of Babel / Tower of Religion conflicts that I think result from people not adopting a convention of going to a computer / smartphone and bring up refined, well organized, well presented ideas.

Every conversation this past 25 years, since Y2K, I feel like I am re-inventing the wheel. We are so focused on using language to our own personal style and fashion, that we have lost common understanding and ground. People across the world #PaleBlueDot do not watch the same films, sports, TV shows, read the same books, etc.

Wikipedia has places to translate every topic to every language in the world! Unicode abounds on Wikipedia.

Why are people not recognizing this need? Why can't I go to a free / advertising-free / donation paid / taxpayer paid - resource of common topics? Why can't I read about rice and apples throughout the world and ways to cook and prepare them, in any language? Why not read about bacteria in a well organized way, in any language? Why don't people want almost EVERYTHING to be in a common ground understanding.

It is as people have become so accustomed to the "Tower of Babel" metaphor problem / "Tower of Religions" that we are enshrining misunderstandings and errors in comprehension!

A photograph, a video, of rice might eliminate so much argument and conflict between people - instead of us all being so hyper-focused on our own individual writings / speech / language usage.

The for-profit / greed seeking incentives to keep information private and only have low-quality information to the "general public" I think plays a role in worsening the situaiton. Human conflicts, from marriages to nations at war, because we don't have a common set of well-refined well-organized understandings of our own planet / Earth / world.

Now there is a #WarAgainstReality to deliberately worsen this problem! #ActiveMeasures warfare to pollute and wreck understanding, to sew confusion. And with #ChatGPT and other #LargeLanguageModels doing their #AIHallucination - we are drowning in misunderstandings. We are in a constant "Tragedy of the Commons" in terms of communications / understanding / comprehension.

I think #RupertMurdoch #FoxNews thrives off generating alternate language and conflicts in common understandings. And i'm not the first to describe this in public.

::::: "Do You Speak Fox?" "How Donald Trump’s favorite news source became a language" By Megan Garber. September 16, 2020 :::::

I think by people world-wide not focusing on a common Wikipedia like system of common human comprehension and understanding, we have made life miserable. We have #SettledFor a shitty life these past 25 years. We have sold-short our future.

::::: “If all information is seen as part of a war, out go any dreams of a global information space where ideas flow freely, bolstering deliberative democracy. Instead, the best future one can hope for is an ‘information peace’, in which each side respects the other’s ‘information sovereignty’: a favoured concept of both Beijing and Moscow, and essentially a cover for enforcing censorship.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019 ::::

And, frankly, I think we could all FEEL GOOD about humanity to go to a common set of Wikipedia values systems where we can take #HumanPride that we have all contributed our own little part in shared knowledge and shared comprehension / understanding.

Autism Spectrum Disorder and the ever-shifting comprehension and understandings I get from reading 30 different books about autism from the past 20 years has bewildered me why people don't see these problems.
