It's especially bad on reels/shorts for pretty much all platforms. Tons of financial scams looking to steal personal info or worse. And I had one on a Facebook reel that was for boner pills that was legit a minute long ad of hardcore porn. Not just nudity but straight up uncensored fucking.

I'm going to undress Nobody. And give them sexy tentacles.

Same vein as "you should not mentally undress the girl you fancy". It's just a support for that. Not that i have used it.

Don't just upload someone else's image without consent, though. That's even illegal in most of europe.

Something like this could be career ending for me. Because of the way people react. “Oh did you see Mrs. Bee on the internet?” Would have to change my name and move three towns over or something. That’s not even considering the emotional damage of having people download you. Knowledge that “you” are dehumanized in this way. It almost takes the concept of consent and throws it completely out the window. We all know people have lewd thoughts from time to time, but I think having a metric on that…it would be so twisted for the self-image of the victim. A marketplace for intrusive thoughts where anyone can be commodified. Not even celebrities, just average individuals trying to mind their own business.

Wtf are you even talking about? People should have the right to control if they are "approximated" as nude. You can wax poetic how it's not nessecarily correct but that's because you are ignoring the woman who did not consent to the process. Like, if I posted a nude then that's on the internet forever. But now, any picture at all can be made nude and posted to the internet forever. You're entirely removing consent from the equation you ass.

I suspect it's more affecting for younger people who don't really think about the fact that in reality, no one has seen them naked. Probably traumatizing for them and logic doesn't really apply in this situation.

The draw to these apps is that the user can exploit anyone they want. It's not really about sex, it's about power.

Make one :P

Then I suspect you'll find the answer is money. The ones for women simply just make more money.

I've seen a tool like that. Everyone was a bodybuilder and Hung like a horse.

Be the change you wish to see in the world

\s

You probably don't need them. You can get these photos without even trying. Is a bit of a problem really.

There isn’t really many good reasons to post your kid’s picture anyway.

The porn industry is, in fact, extremely hostile to AI image generation. How can anyone make money off porn if users simply create their own?

Also I wouldn't be surprised if the it's false advertising and in clicking the ad will in fact just take you to a webpage with more ads, and a link from there to more ads, and more ads, and so on until eventually users either give up (and hopefully click on an ad).

Whatever's going on, the ad is clearly a violation of instagram's advertising terms.

I’m just hoping I can communicate the danger of some of the social media platforms to my children well enough. That’s where the most damage is done with the kind of stuff.

It's just not your children you need to communicate it to. It's all the other children they interact with. For example I know a young girl (not even a teenager yet) who is being bullied on social media lately - the fact she doesn't use social media herself doesn't stop other people from saying nasty things about her in public (and who knows, maybe they're even sharing AI generated CSAM based on photos they've taken of her at school).

Ortega? The taco sauce?

NSFW-ish

What in the fuck are all these photos of kids? They're not part of the ad?

It's about consent. If you have no problem with people jerking off to your pictures, fine, but others do.

If you don't want people to jerk off to your photos, don't upload any. It happens with and without these apps.

You get that that opinion is pretty much the same as those who say if she didn't want to be harrassed she shouldn't have worn such provocative clothing!?

How about we allow people to upload whatever pictures they want and try to address the weirdos turning them into porn without consent, rather than blaming the victims?

I think it's clear you have never experienced being sexualized when you weren't okay with it. It's a pretty upsetting experience that can feel pretty violating. And as most guys rarely if ever experience being sexualized, never mind when they don't want to be, I'm not surprised people might be unable to emphasize

Having experienced being sexualized when I wasn't comfortable with it, this kind of thing makes me kinda sick to be honest. People are used to having a reasonable expectation that posting safe for work pictures online isn't inviting being sexualized. And that it would almost never be turned into pornographic material featuring their likeness, whether it was previously possible with Photoshop or not.

It's not surprising people would find the loss of that reasonable assumption discomforting given how uncomfortable it is to be sexualized when you don't want to be. How uncomfortable a thought it is that you can just be going about your life and minding your own business, and it will now be convenient and easy to produce realistic porn featuring your likeness, at will, with no need for uncommon skills not everyone has

Also why would you care if someone jerks off to a photo you uploaded, regardless of potential nude edits. They can also just imagine you naked.

Imagining and creating physical (even digial) material are different levels of how real and tangible it feels. Don't you think?

There is an active act of carefully editing those pictures involved. It's a misuse and against your intention when you posted such a picture of yourself. You are loosing control by that and become unwillingly part of the sexual act of someone else.

Sure, those, who feel violated by that, might also not like if people imagine things, but that's still a less "real" level.

For example: Imagining to murder someone is one thing. Creating very explicit pictures about it and watching them regularly, or even printing them and hanging them on the walls of one's room, is another.
I don't want to equate murder fantasies with sexual ones. My point is to illustrate that it feels to me and obviously a lot of other people that there are significant differences between pure imagination and creating something tangible out of it.
