  • Thanks for the article.

    To me this does not seem like the same situation at all.

    The situation in OP was people unexpectedly coming upon a flight or fight situation. They make an immediate decision that saving the baby is the right thing to do. Humans have evolved to have a soft spot for babies, even if different species.

    I don’t think it’s even a little surprising that most humans would react this way in this situation. They weren’t able to speculate about what they should do beforehand, they weren’t sitting comfortably at their keyboard, they had to made a quick decision, and they chose to save a life.


















  • I mostly agree with everything you say, except for one thing.

    I’m pretty sure it’s technically possible to detect nude images, on device, 100% securely, without anyone ever knowing it was detected. This probably isn’t the approach that some corporations will take, but as far as I am aware, this is how the current nude detection on iPhone works. It’s all on device, and just blurs it so the user has to accept a warning before seeing the content. If you control your phone, you can disable it. If it’s a phone setup for a child, the child cannot disable it. It’s up to the parent to specify what the child is allowed to do.


  • I’m not sure if I agree with this take. To me, it is similar to saying we shouldn’t give kids free lunches, cause it’s the parents responsibility to feed their kid.

    Like yeah, parents should be feeding their kid. But it’s also unreasonable to think that every single parent is doing that. It’s just not realistic, so we should definitely be feeding kids when they aren’t getting it at home.

    On the same token, I don’t see anything wrong with trying to protect kids from talking with strangers, or getting sent explicit material, when their parents don’t know or care how to do it themselves.
