In Russia they have passed a law some time ago that you can never post dead children faces in any mass media (so they pixelate or draw over).
I was thinking that it is most stupid law, but now I don't. Oh boy how right these lawmakers were in light of this new development.
- chris-orgmenta 3y agoAgree. I think every camera manufacturer should implement auto blur on photos (legislate it). Then an opt-in system unblurs the faces of the people that approve. (Or just replace the faces with AI random faces instead of blur) Point being, society has fallen into an opt-out system naturally - But I don't think there is good reason for it to be a necessary thing for the common good. I want privacy, and the tech is there to do it. Manufacturers are meddling with raw images for proof of non-tampering, and if the horse has bolted there then I want my proposal above folded in at the same level.
