Maugrim posted:There's a panic in parenting groups at the moment that "hackers" are inserting Momo into otherwise innocuous kids videos - even on supposedly safe KidTube - to draw kids in, harvest their data and send them "graphic violent images" and encourage them to kill themselves. I don't know anything about Momo beyond that, sounds a bit like Slenderman to me I guess. Worth noting there’s not actually any confirmed cases of this happening - just parents reporting their kids claiming it has when asked. And we all know how reliable 5 year olds are.

Guavanaut posted:There's a huge difference between not creating intelligent life and killing existent intelligent life though. It's more like Mother Ann Lee than Judge Death, who I'd consider to be morally pretty much opposite. Until we discover immortality though the desired goal is the same - a universe without intelligent life. Mother Ann Lee is just Judge Death with more patience. It's also not really a very achievable goal, because even if we all euthanized ourselves for the good of the cosmos the universe would probably just evolve some new intelligence-having pricks. Our existence is just the result of time plus hydrogen after all.

Bobby Deluxe posted:What's a fubpee? I feel like this thread needs its own wiki, only it would be one page with 'everything is hosed' in 82 point comic sans. Collective term for twitter people who obsessively tweet about Brexit, as though it was the worlds singular largest problem, and blame Corbyn, as if he's the sole reason Brexit is happening. It started off as a twitter hashtag; #FBPE - Follow Back; Pro Europe - presumably as a sign of solidarity Whatever its original use, it's now the shorthand for people - generally centrists - who treat Brexit as the biggest single current catastrophe, ignoring stuff like climate change, austerity, and being furious that Corbyn/Labour isn't spending 24/7 obsessively focussing on Brexit. It'll be poo poo like, Corbyn posting about what a nice time he had with some hospice children, or holding the Tories to account on the massive wage gap between the richest and poorest, with inevitable comments being "DEAD KIDS ARE BAD BUT WHY AREN'T YOU STOPPING BREXIT", or "Austerity is bad, you know what's worse; Brexit", endlessly cawing that he support a People's Vote/ Second Referendum, at the literal expense of everything else that's happening. Their narrative is that he is either a secret Leaver, or Brexit happend (and continues to happen) be HE, himself, didn't campaign enough to personally stop it. The Tory blame for this, of course, is never factored into things. These are people who treat Anna Soubry - a woman who has literally voted for all but two Tory policies, and that includes Brexit policies - as a rebel, just because she says that Brexit is bad and should be stopped - and they then ignore the fact that after she says this, she would go and vote in favour of the thing she just said was bad, and never hold her to account. Trashfuture had a great analogy - these are people who think if they complain to the Brexit manager enough, Brexit will be cancelled and they'll get their refund. And even when Labour supports a "people's vote" - despite their Brexit strategy being known for months among people who have followed their conference info - the narrative is that it's too late, and Corbyn is to blame for it.

Mega Comrade posted:It's possible to blame the tories but also think Labour under Corbyn have been poo poo opposition for the last 2 years. Yeah it's been rocky. But Corbyn's Labour has also been under constant attack from everyone but the "mirror" for the last two years. This is the same chicken and egg argument that pissflaps loved. Corbyn is always under attack making him look weak. He's under attack because he looks weak. The most troubling aspect of all this is not the fall of Corbyn. It's that we can never have a real left wing leader without the same campaign of character assassination. I mean Labour have been clear that they oppose austerity, want to renationalise resources vital to functioning society that are constantly loving up such as the rail companies and protect the NHS. If this isn't enough for the British public i'd say the problem doesn't lie with the government. If they truly want to live in a shithole country what can you do? Parties cannot mind control the electorate.

Bobby Deluxe posted:The article starts with the author reminiscing over the innocence of the early internet, but I remember as a 16 year old finding stile project and seeing alongside what would now be considered fairly vanilla porn of camgirls, an image of a biker (still alive) who'd had his lower jaw ripped off in an accident and was looking at the camera like 'what the gently caress do i do now.' A hand caught in a bacon slicer (the real one, not the nice clean photoshop). Car crashes and burnt protesters and all sorts of examples of the visceral, everyday horror of existence. I get your point, but also nobody was embedding any of that poo poo in videos for literal toddlers on mainstream well-regarded websites. e/ I don't think it's necessarily hypocritical for someone who had unsupervised net access at 13 a couple of decades ago to say that 13 year olds now shouldn't have the same, because they fundamentally won't have the same experience we did.

Oh absolutely. But I think the state of the early internet should not be glossed over, and doing so runs the risk of ignoring the root of the kind of abject morality that allows someone to place body horror into kids videos. At the risk of offending, I kind of think the way our generation sees it as 'just' gore is pretty telling of the visuals we've had to normalise. thespaceinvader posted:The early internet had a LOT of shock factor (there's a reason 'no ring' is a running joke) but it had nothing on today's internet for, you know, nazis.

It's gone from YouTube now but it definitely existed so others might as well. But there's no evidence of the creepypastas driving kids to suicide thing, that's itself a creepypasta and nothing more. Any 'self harm' stuff is more likely to be the schoolyard "dare you to grab that thistle" than adult trolls. Of course, there are atrocious people like that Cambridge 'hurtcore' abuser who use the internet, and that's the type of thing that all kids should be made aware of in a "here's who you can turn to if someone tries to intimidate you or make you do something that you don't want to online" way. They should be debating things like that and the bad YouTube content pitched at kids, not Smile Dog killing their kids. thespaceinvader posted:The early internet had a LOT of shock factor (there's a reason 'no ring' is a running joke) but it had nothing on today's internet for, you know, nazis.
