I was once auto-reported for hate speech for posting “Death to the Federation!” on a Star Trek: Klingon fan-group that showed a picture of several Klingon attack cruisers beating the crap out of a Federation starship. Didn’t get my posting privileges taken away, though.
I got put in Nextdoor jail (how embarrassing is that?). The reason… I pointed out (repeatedly) that Coyotes roam over many miles and the fact you saw one at 3rd and Main on Thursday at 2 probably isn’t going to be helpful an hour later, let alone a week or so later. Don’t mess with Nextdoor posters and their Coyote sightings.
That may seem funny, but it shows why letting AIs regulate our speech is a very bad idea.
I know of some people that have been using Facebook and other Social Media to harass, threaten, blackmail, dox and harm people in other ways for years because they way they go about it obviously wooshes right over the ICU of the AIs.
I guess I wouldn’t last a day (I don’t Facebook), because I call my dog Trixie “The Slick Black Devil” all the time.
She is, too!
I once got in trouble for posting a photo that was originally in Rolling Stone magazine of Lifeson, Rutsey, and Lee in their underwear. Nothing was exposed at all. Since that time I’ve seen all manner of nudity and violence but I guess nothing compares with Alex Lifeson in his tighty whities.
Recently I got in trouble again replying to a comment about a crime. The details are a blur but I think it was that we thought someone was murdered but she was just raped. And I said something along the lines of “well I guess she’s lucky she was only raped”. The next morning I went to log in and was told I had a 24 hour suspension for it.
FB sent me an apology. Said they got it wrong (their words). I think I should demand a free week.
