you toolbag, I can read what you wrote.
You don't know where I started. You know that I asked that question. It is not where I started. I thought about the implications and why technology is not the issue but the application of said technology. Also that acceptance or tolerance by a society comes into play.
I couldn't figure out what their angle was for blackmail was because you need one to be successful. So I asked that question.
It is not victim blaming, it's asking about circumstances I am not familiar with since I couldn't be there and see for myself. I can't read minds you know.
And by the way the saying that only a person willing to do something wrong can be conned could be a nice angle for blackmail. If you catch a person doing something wrong makes them vulnerable. I KNOW that somebody would use footage of that to blackmail somebody.
AI didn't come into play here for me until somebody pointed it out.
So take your tool out of my bag and relax.
fucking gross bastard, get your jollies somewhere else
you're a defender of the creeps, and that was the creepiest bit so far. you know people are evil but want them to have better equip to creep with, it's insufferable
Sure thing. You absolutely understood my point.
