It's being reported that New Zealand has banned puberty blockers for transgender youth. I removed New Zealand from my recommendations to families fleeing a while back after the far right saw a surge in power in the country. Sad day for NZ trans youth.

Online censorship is one of the many levers of state power right-wingers have been pulling to try and snuff out queer and trans existence. But instead of fighting back, some Democrats are helping them at the controls. Read the full #OpEd from @fightforthefuture.org

#7880, the same ICE team lead we've seen at immigration court, was again manhandling photographers today. "You know who I am, right?" he says before taking a photo. (We don't know who he is! But if you do, let us know.)

Not all the works included in this list of books are copyrighted. There are also those with @creativecommons.bsky.social licences - authors won't see any money of this but kindly shared their knowledge with all of us.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Anthropic will pay publishers not authors. Some of my work is in the libgen dataset, but I won't get anything from this judgement, because the copyright is held by the copyright mafia: Springer, Elsevier etc. I'm happy for it to be in the dataset and happy for it to be used to train AI models.

Anthropic will pay at least $3,000 for each copyrighted work that it pirated. The company downloaded unauthorized copies of books in early efforts to gather training data for its AI tools. www.wired.com/story/anthro...

ICE raided a popular restaurant in a San Diego neighborhood. About 3 dozen agents, some in full tactical gear, arrested restaurant workers while patrons were enjoying dinner. The ICE agents didn't expect a resounding rejection by neighbors & patrons. The community spontaneously protested.
