- dijit 2y agoBlackmail me how? By giving information to the people who would have had it otherwise? Hardly a defensible position to blackmail someone from.
- pvaldes 2y agoAnybody that has lots of videos from you could train a deep fake realistic model and create a fake video depicting you committing a major crime. Sadly blackmail is the easier part.
- dijit 2y agoI am failing to understand why I would prefer the US to have the ability to do this over China though.
- pvaldes 2y agoThis depends on if you can vote to change the presidents of US or China or not.
- dijit 2y agoI can do neither.. that's kinda my point. I have super powers on both sides, one can influence the policies and politics of my country much stronger than the other[0]. Why would I choose that side, they don't give me more rights and they don't give me any capacity to complain.
