That is hilarious! I've never been so tempted to use Facebook :-) When will this feature be added on Hacker News? Right after they implement emojis I do hope!

I wonder how Facebook reasons they're not violating copyright here.
- blacksmith_tb 3y agoExactly, who cares about the sensibilities of the poor children when Meta is infringing on Disney's copyrights, that's clearly the most shocking element here. Also, they're pretty well done, nice work from the team that put that together.
- zer0zzz 3y agoYou don't have to, its on WhatsApp as well and it's pretty hilarious to play with.
- xeromal 3y agoI've been playing with these since I got access in whatsapp. My wife decided she needed something from the bathroom as soon as I sat on the shitter so I sent her a pile of poop with a 2 minute timer. It's pretty great.
- baby 3y agoWhat’s the difference between this and you drawing that sticker yourself?
- shadowgovt 3y agoTime spent and source of data.
- baby 3y agoIt sounds like you’re describing the difference between two people drawing the sticker
- shadowgovt 3y agoI might be. And Disney may very well choose to sue one person and decide another other is too small-potatoes to bother the lawyer cost. But when the data source is "copyrighted works fed into an AI sieve owned by Facebook" (meaning the defendant is emphatically not "judgment-proof") and the speed is "Could generate millions of these a second," the knives are sharpened and the cease-and-desists drawn up.
- lolc 3y agoIf I were to draw that, there's a few ways this could be fair use. Or simply unlicensed without a problem if I share it privately. I don't see how it's fair use when a company provides these stickers in such a broad manner. Pretty sure Disney is weighing their options right now.
