Finally it seems the end of Reddit is near.
Yeah, fuck all that.
Guess we’re transitioning into a VPN only future.
We have the opportunity to head into a utopic or dystopic future and we’re absolutely choosing the dystopic one.
I don’t think we ever really had a choice
Indeed. With our current system it was only a matter of time. As soon as the internet became a default thing which everyone needed to access just to function in their daily lives, it would of course be subjected to the exact same exploitative mechanisms that the non-internet part of our lives have suffered from since the dawn of history.

u/spez was the lead moderator of r/jailbait, and when he was caught, he got rid of mod transparency. Ghilisaine Maxwell was likely a l lead moderator of news Reddits as well (u/MaxwellHill). Reddit has always been compromised.
POV: You’re the intern tasked with reviewing the selfies.
It’ll almost certainly be an AI model doing it.
thats not what pov means, upload a selfie as punishment
That could very well be the POV of the intern having to approve career gooners
Is this the onion?
Lmao when the “anonymous” online forum requires de-anonymizing, I want to hope everyone leaves
Some people will leave, the rest will ride it out as Reddit continues to transform itself into Facebook
Next in the news: “500k Usernames, Passwords and biometric data leaked in the latest hack”
So…coming soon: an app that can match up images of friends or colleagues with a summary of their pornography preferences.
This could at least liven up some boring meetings or dull parties…
Remember those are just the ones you hear about. Plenty happen and are never talked about by either side for obvious reasons.
Who is not “Rick Rolling” this with a selfie of a stock photo (or a frame from “Never Gonna Give you Up”?)
This is the facebook “show a video of your face” bs all over again. glad i don’t have an account on either site bc not only is it a huge privacy concern, you know they store all that data and are going to sell it and/or use it to train AI models
How about I upload a dick Pic? That should do.
“That’s a crime what you are doing”
“What, taking a leak?”
“No, holding a little boy’s dick”
laugh track playing, with accompanying drumroll
There’s a bunch of AI face generating pictures. I wonder if you can just use those. Or maybe this is just to create a new law to arrest people of uploading fake pictures…
Are they asking for selfies, or selfies of the user? Important difference.
And it would know the difference how?
They can force you to use your phone’s camera. Due to faceID, modern phones have fairly sophisticated cameras that can tell the difference between a static image and a 3d physical face.
I’m not the person you were replying to but maybe the limit of using the websites like the ones I posted is you can’t reuse the same face (at least not than I’m aware of).
So if you are in the UK and you upload 2 selfies from the site and the facial recognition pattern is different from each other, then the system which Reddit is using might reject it.
This is only a guess though.
It should be trivial to generate a stack of similar enough selfies to fool these systems. Still, any site that starts requiring this shit isn’t worth going on.
“Stephen Fry has an awful lot of Reddit accounts.”
Like father, like son, I guess.
is reddit still alive? it must be 100% bot on bot action by now…
Lemmy is heavily botted as well. They are the ones making the majority of the posts.
no?
Fuck Reddit fuck spez
Well, I guess i am going to be regularly updating the metadata on my most recent selfie.
Oh dear. What a dreadful business.
Anyway, this is mine.
