If Taylor Swift Can't Defeat Deepfake Porn, No One Can
If anyone can rally up a base, it's Taylor Swift. When sexually explicit, likely AI-generated images of Swift circulated on social media this week, it galvanized her fans. Swifties found phrases and hashtags related to the images and flooded them with videos and photos of Swift performing. "Protect Taylor Swift" went viral, trending as Swifties spoke out against not just the Swift deepfakes, but all nonconsensual, explicit images made of women. Swift, arguably the most famous woman in the world right now, has become the high-profile victim of an all-too-frequent form of harassment.
Are Aliens Real? UFO Sighting In Chile Recorded On Video, Government Says
Comité de Estudios de Fenómenos Aéreos Anómalos (CEFAA), a Chilean government agency within the civil aeronautics directorate (the DGAC, roughly equivalent to the United States' Federal Aviation Administration) released a video taken by a Navy helicopter of a mysterious craft in 2014. The remarkable footage was captured by two naval officers on a helicopter-mounted Wescam infrared camera, typically used in covert, aerial surveillance. If you've seen Predator drone footage, you've seen these cameras in action. Captured west of Santiago at an altitude of approximately 4,500 feet (far lower than commercial airliners), the Unexplained Aerial Phenomenon (UAP, the new preferred term for UFOs) was first observed with the naked eye from an estimated distance of 35 to 40 miles. The helicopter crew -- a Navy captain and camera technician -- captured 10 minutes of some of the most baffling and well-sourced video ever taken of a UFO.
