“… oh yeah? Well that’s nothing. MY dad is the head of Xbox! Uh-huh! I swear!”

I’ve lied to you too, but you still use me, Steven!

I didn’t think you were being doubtful, just trying to clarify that I hadn’t been using one. This was around then the Epstein files stated coming out. Saw a post about how the DoJ released full zips and then started taking down files so I did my nerd duty to grab all the original full archives. Then I had to look, and the lots of talk about “modeling” agencies that definitely weren’t that made me wonder about the creepy shit I’d seen with young “models” and “gymnasts” … it’s a shit rabbit hole, especially since nothing is being done about any of it.

Not just the kids, the things like Gabriela Rico Jiménez screaming in public claiming the Epstein & Friends were literally eating children trying to get help then vanishing the next day? It’s a SFW video, just her yelling hysterically and sounding crazy in public in 2019. It sounds way less crazy in 2026. :/

“A New Mexico judge ordered the Instagram, Facebook and Whatsapp parent company to pay another $567m for the way it has harmed children.”

Does this include the new news of them accepting CSAM and authrozing it to be sent on their platform as ads? What about for making glasses so pedophiles can secretly record children to later have AI undress for them? Maybe the part where Zuck had them actively work to get their AI to sex chat with little kids because that would mean the kids used his platform more?

No? Wait, this is just psychological harm to kids who use the platform? Man, the legal system is way beyond the goings on at Meta.

When I signed up I wasn’t using a VPN, just the home internet that for the last 7 years had only been used by my mid 60s father who can barely use a computer and spends all of his free time playing a slot machine “game” where you do nothing but click the button over and over and it tells you how much you win or lose.

The only real reasons I suggested a VPN are to try to keep it from being associated with your actual existing information if you have any. But it’s Meta. I imagine if you just logged out of any account you might have and made a new one it would go that same way.

Err… no shit? I spent 5 years off the internet. When I got back around a year ago I tried making a facebook account just to keep in touch with some family members.

Go try it. Use a VPN to block your IP, make a brand new account from a brand new email address and pop on and off a few times. I gaurantee that their shorts section will show you little girls in bikinis or skin tight leotards doing “gymnastics” that aren’t actually gymnastics. Click on one of them and read the insane comments from men very clearly saying they want to fuck these children.

Congratulations. Now that you’ve clicked on one of them they will show up in that shorts section a lot more often. If you click a few to read the comments in horror you’ll be getting loads of them.

They appear in the shorts section, which is 55% dedicated to women doing blatantly sexual things, 20% guys doing stupid things, 5% anything else they might think will make people click, and 20%… children in very revealing and/or skin tight clothing.

They use those things for a reason. It’s what gets the most clicks. It’s what causes the highest user engagement and retention. They know what all those comments say. They know why those videos are there. A lot of them aren’t just videos. They’re fucking ads. If you decide to go real deep into the rabbit whole you can start searching for the name of the girl and or their “modeling” or “gymnastics” company online. It won’t take many tries from those videos to hit some result that sends you to Telegram or a Darknet page where you can send some form of digital currency in exchange for the real stuff for the models of your choice. (Note: This was when I stopped and tried to report it to the government before realizing the US government now supports child rape.)

Some of these girls have moved directly from videos like this to OnlyFans or similar sites. Some of them are known to have pictures from before they turned 18 that they started sending on those the day they did turn 18, after years of getting attention and drumming up followers online starting before they were even teenagers, and often selling CSAM on the down low.

I’d be shocked if they started these things, as little kids, because they decided to make the world’s most fucked up early retirement plan. Adults were involved. No way in hell a good amount of the girls weren’t trafficked, and that many aren’t also available for in person visits from the very rich customers.

Meta caters to child rapists and pedophiles. They help them run their businesses. They have all the back end information to track the users and accounts, the AI to track the images of the girls, the “agency” names, all of it. But instead of doing their best to stop it because it’s fucking awful they push that onto the feeds of people their algorithms say will like it so they make more money off of ads.

Meta, the company it was already open news that Zuckerberg wanted his AI to sex chat with children, because that meant they’d spend more time on his platform. After All the crazy harm the platforms are going to little girls was big news and a big court issue.

While making and marketing special glasses for pedophiles to use to record innocent children in public without anyone freaking out.

This might be the least ethical and most outright evil tech company there is. If they knew no one would report it and it would get them more users and money they’d absolutely keep sending CSAM out to people.

He doesn’t care how many people use it. It served it’s purpose. It started when he was banned from social media. So he could keep ranting and raving.

He also used it launching to make a bunch of money. Then he used it to help launch his meme coin rug pull to make even more tons of money. Since then he’s been using it to openly manipulating the stock market over and over for his own personal gain. He’s now using it as a platform to directly sell the right to make tons of money insider trading to anyone willing to pay $100,000/month.

The only two type of people who matter to him on his scam social media platform are the people paying him all that money for early access to whatever bullshit he plans to say to manipulate the stock market, and all the news agencies who are always so excited to grab any new rambling insanity he shits out there and post articles to make sure everyone hears about it… which is how he manipulates the stock market to begin with.

I love that you just advised going to every community and announcing that they exist like it’s their first day in kindergarten. You probably meant that last sentence perfectly innocently like a kind person would, but after thinking that it read as an absolutely beautiful underhanded barb.

None of the words in my reply indicated in any way that I thought you were AI or were accusing you of being that.

Well… you can make posts, and read posts, and also comment on posts.

The whole intro thing is a bit odd. Reddit uses AI to auto ban people constantly if the AI guesses you’re saying something naughty. You don’t really need to walk in and justify why you’re here. Plus you’re making it very clear that you don’t want to be here anyway, and plan to bail as soon as you can go back there.

It’s pretty much like walking in to a bar and telling a lady that you’re married, but your wife isn’t speaking with you at the moment so you’re looking for someone to use for a short while to keep yourself from feeling bored but plan to blow them off the minute you can.

Sure, I’m not saying there aren’t people filming their actual lives or opinions or other really real things on streaming sites. There definitely are. Most people who make those videos and streams might even start off that way.

But the algorithms that control what users see push whatever content each person is likely to agree with or strongly disagree with in order to maximize user engagement. That means anyone making videos that a large percentage of the user base will agree with or saying things many people will strongly disagree with and argue about are going to have much better metrics and make a lot more money, and the people who find a sustainable way to balance those two things will usually be the top and make the most.

Being in the top group can mean going from being completely poor to living in a mansion with lots of millions of dollars and the best of everything along with having millions of people watching and caring about everything you say.

Everyone making videos or streams is going to pay attention to their total views and shares and user comments. When a video does way better than others they’re going to wonder why and probably rewatch it, eventually noticing the patterns in ways they were acting and things they said that resulted in the most views and shares and people commenting and watching their next videos.

It gives everyone doing it huge motivation to act whatever ways they learn get them the most attention. They might not actively decide to put on a total act and fine tune it into what gets them the most views, but over time most people are going to do that. The streamers and online “content creators” that have the highest views and the most recognition are almost all going to be the fakest people.

They’re putting on the act they’ve found gets them the most views, the most money, and the most clout, but that most people will watch and interact with and applaud the views they agree with or angrily comment about the things they strongly disagree with because they believe they’re interacting with someone’s actual thoughts and opinions and not what’s become a character.

The top performers can be banned repeatedly from platforms and keep coming back or do things that should be a permanent ban or even criminal charges and have nothing come of it. Whatever platform they’re on cares about getting the most views, and money, and highest user engagement and retention more than honesty, their ToS, legality, treating all of their “content creators” the same, or anything else. The platforms are aware that saying and doing very controversial or even illegal things can result in a whole lot of public engagement.

It makes the very worst of us ‘celebrities’ and pushes decent people who start it into becoming sacks of shit.

Watching idiots on YouTube act out of fake personas, have fake arguments with other idiots on youtube, and say and do whatever they think will get them the most views and money has become the newest generation of reality tv.

I’ve never understood people deciding to spend their time and their lives watching what other people on YouTube or other social media have to say about anything.

Nothing about how social media works create some actual drive for those people to be honest or genuine about anything. They’re directly financially incentivized to do or say whatever they think would get them the most clicks and views. There isn’t any realness, just the drive to make people think they are being real and genuine in whatever it is they think we’ll get the most clicks and views.

When it started I saw it is mostly people streaming playing games on line and just didn’t understand why I would spend my time watching other people play games instead of spending my time playing games myself. Now it’s changed to pretty much just watching everything a person says and watching their “life” while they sit in front of the camera or no other cameras are rolling and act completely different than they would act without them.

Yeah, sometimes someone’s going to slip up and let out a racial slur or something. Some sign of the person they really are. But most of what everyone is watching is just people putting on an act to get views and to make money. It’s just the “reality tv” of a younger generation and just as based in actual reality. Semi scripted arguments between two players to try to drum up views for both of them, all of it. It’s Real World, Big Brother, and Real Housewives.

None of it is real, the people are all completely fake, but the streaming format makes people tune in and feel more like they are actually these people’s friend instead of another one of 100 million people that suckered into watching their bullshit so they can make what’s not crazy amounts of money doing nothing with any actual value to society.

I can’t really think of better spokespeople for AI, since they’re already completely fake people.

Ah, perfectly reasonable in that case.

Everything, everywhere, doesn’t always happen as it does in your frame of reference and experience. I find it unlikely that you’re genuinely an expert in engineering projects of this sort and specifically in exactly how they’re undertaken in China with large scale government support.

You hate the dead bird and want to ruin it’s life even more than it already being a dead bird? That’s kind of harsh. I’m a dick and even I’ve never looked ad a dead thing and angrily wanted it to be more dead.

In this system it seems like a “rogue officer” would be someone with personal integrity.

“CXMT is projected to produce about 350,000 DRAM wafers per month by the end of 2026, assuming all current projects are completed on schedule.”

This is a small blurb on a random tech site, it’s just giving a simple ‘if all goes well’ projection.

I’m sure they’re not setting the entire undertaking up so that if one thing ends up slightly delayed everyone’s heads will explode. It seems likely that they also have projections that take varying delays with varying parts and numbers of parts of the project into account, but that someone writing a small blurb on a tech site isn’t really privy to the entirety of their forecasting.

I don’t think they need you to rush in and save them from their folly.

And the user support AI the website automatically opens in in popup can just tell you if you tell it you’re the King of Water and you forgot the account info.
