that’s really weird. I worked in healthcare and literally never saw that once… that was a decade ago now, but still.

What country and industry do you work in? I’ve never even heard of that much less seen it in a professional capacity.
- Comment on All cheap smartphones have a fingerprint sensor but all laptops dont have one. Why? 1 week ago:
If you have an Apple Watch you don’t even need to do that. 😂 but yeah it’s great having a fingerprint scanner on a computer

It should tell you a lot about what the app is actually for if bytedance is going to completely remove it from the market rather than sell it off to allow it to keep running …

Maybe don’t listen to people who can’t even define the word “woke” but use it in every sentence.
- Comment on Discord is nuking Nintendo Switch emulator devs and their entire servers 5 weeks ago:
This has nothing to do with being a walled platform. All these maintainers of all these lemmy servers would have to do the exact same thing if Nintendo came to them. And if they refused then Nintendo could go to the server host. And if that didn’t work you would end up in court. It has nothing to do with walled gardens and everything to do with Nintendo abusing dmca.
- Comment on I feel old 1 month ago:
Yeah if used in that manner you have to put a word after it. Not doing so is redefining it
- Comment on I feel old 1 month ago:
they literally redefined it. It no longer means to ’ : presented as a gift : bestowed without compensation ’ or ‘particular, specified’ or ’ : immediately present in experience ’ they’re using it as “it gives me the energy of” which already HAD A DEFINITION. THAT’S WHAT VIBE MEANS.
That’s not the original definition of ‘giving’ something, i have no clue where you got that from.
Bunch of morons downvoting too, bet y’all saying giving a hundred times a day. fucking idiots.
- Comment on I'm working on it, ok? 1 month ago:
That means it’s working. You’re doing exactly what you need to and it’s absolutely paying off!
- Comment on I feel old 1 month ago:
At least cheugy is a new word. All these fucking morons literally redefining “giving” and it’s absolutely terrible. It doesn’t sound good. It just makes you sound idiotic and like you don’t know English.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
128kbps is referring to the ATT limitation so you’re just proving my point. T-Mobile doesn’t do what att does.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
I have T-Mobile, they absolutely don’t.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
50gb is not even close to 5gb and 3g speeds are not even close to 128kbs so no, T-Mobile doesn’t do this.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
3g speeds are fine, no clue what you’re talking about. I literally tether all the time and when I hit the limit it’s still completely usable, even for YouTube. And getting to that limit is well above the 5gb from ATT. Like I said, att is shit, T-Mobile doesn’t do this and hasn’t for years.
Literally every carrier on the planet limits hotspot data in some manner. This isn’t a US thing.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 1 month ago:
T-Mobile hasn’t done this for years. Att is just shit

- Comment on IT nags me everyday to update iOS, but they didn't approve the update... 2 months ago:
I’ve had IT bug me about this at my company for the past several updates. For some reason their software never picks up that I’ve updated my machine, maybe because I literally do it only hours after the update has come out. Every single time I’m like “I’ve been on that version since the day it released. They then do something on their side and are like “oh it’s showing up as up to date now, thank you”… smh

- Comment on Just banned from Worldnews for defending Israel against Hamas terrorism 2 months ago:
Being against Israel’s actions isn’t antisemitism. You’re literally spreading antisemitism if you think that Israel = Jewish. The government of Israel clearly does not do anything even slightly worth considering as part of Judaism, so equating the two is just you trying to win an argument that is literally indefensible unless you claim antisemitism.

Your whole comment here quite succinctly demonstrates that you truly don’t understand ethics. “licenses and permissions are irrelevant” is quite a way to put “I don’t care about your desires, imma do what I want as long as it’s legal”. It’s unethical, full stop. You should do some introspection as your ideas are harming others and your inability to see that is quite sad.
- Comment on RichardAragon/NightshadeAntidote: An 'antidote' to the recently released AI poison pill project known as Nightshade. 3 months ago:
it’s completely infeasible
Then it shouldn’t be done. That’s the unethical part. Trying to just avoid the problem by continuing to scrape large data sets for images that you shouldn’t be using is the entire problem. Either get permission for each image or don’t build your image model. Doing otherwise is unethical.
- Comment on RichardAragon/NightshadeAntidote: An 'antidote' to the recently released AI poison pill project known as Nightshade. 3 months ago:
And I have to say, it’s pretty telling that you saw my comment and took “unethical” for “illegal”. Your focus is clearly “this isn’t illegal, and here’s the evidence to support it”, rather than introspecting and seeing that legality isn’t tied to ethics in a lot of cases. Instead try looking at it from an ethics standpoint, you’ll find there’s a lot less to stand on supporting how models are created, of course trying to get every artist’s permission for using their images in a model would be incredibly difficult, so you instead support the “it’s not illegal” route, even though it’s clearly unethical.

I never once mentioned legality. I mentioned ethicality. Clearly you are talking one while I mean the other. It doesn’t really matter if you are technically within the confines of the law here, this tool is clearly meant to bypass authors intent to steal image data, no matter the source. If an author has a clearly posted notice stating that you cannot use their images in a model, there would be no need for this tool, as you wouldn’t bother using those images in the model. But since these image models are built off of massive data sources that were obtained by scraping without even bothering to ask for permission, then you have people building tools to make sure that that can continue.
This is unethical. It does not matter what the law says, you are ignoring what an author might have indicated their rights to an image are and instead trying to use the law to bypass the ethicality and use those ill obtained images to train something that will eventually replace the author.
And bringing up the creator of nightshade here once again does not matter, this is a discussion about the ethicality of the tool you posted, not about the legality of others actions.
