Its been 10+ years. We have what 1 year left before this project disappears under a sea of oligarch funded anti-freedom regulation. Discord FaceID is here. The stuff of nightmares. Even 5 years ago I never imagined such a thing would happen. Others will follow suit in a blink of an eye. That future needs to arrive in a month or two. We are running out of time.

Now they claim most users won’t go through mandarory faceid scan. Those who should will be singled out by some AI agent, haha:

Of course, it’s possible it’s just PR to ease the annoyance of users and prevent their exodus, or maybe they will implement the strict rules eventually, but for now, perhaps it won’t be as dramatic.
Bingo
OK lets start a chat about kitty cats and talk of the puttycat and pussies. Then talk of having kittens and ask about the sex of your pussy cat. Bingo, adult concepts here and the AI agent deems anyone who is about to read this conversation needs to be age verified.
So no its is rather a meaningless statement by them.
Also during the censorship debate in Australia they even had systems proposed to them that checked images being sent to the user (at the ISP infrastructure) and prevent it if it was inappropriate. Including nudes.
Well they put a picture from the government website of the Prime Minister and the minister in charge of the plan and both were deem sexual images. showing too much skin
So forgive me if I do not consider an AI agent being reliable for determining if content is adult in nature (image, concepts or sexual content)
