Brit lawmaker targeted by AI deepfake fails to get answers from US Big TechAppearing before Parliament, Meta, Google and X struggle to explain how fake political video circulated for so longA member of the UK Parliament's lower house who was the victim of a deepfake AI campaign this week had a rare chance to confront the Big Tech executives who helped spread it. Their answers disappointed.Representatives from Meta, Google, and X stumbled, offered platitudes, and explained their respective policies, but did little to compensate for spreading the potentially ruinous AI fake, or commit to ensuring it could not happen again after Conservative MP George Freeman confronted them.,,,Addressing these responses, Freeman said: "It feels to me as though the platforms are taking the approach that 'they've got a policy' and not policing actively. It falls to us as Parliamentarians to police it. My instinct is to pass a very simple law that somebody's identity belongs to them and cannot be stolen, used, misappropriated, whatever the purpose… You should go to bed a night not fearing that in the morning, you find a deeply damaging, disruptive and dangerous misrepresentation of you."https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/26/brit_law_maker_fails_to/#uk #ukpol #google #meta #twitter #ReformUK #BigTech #usa

@femme_mal @tonanio I could not believe it when that antitrust case went in Meta’s favor, especially after reading @pluralistic’s article where he went through all the emails where Zuck had blatantly engaged in anti-competitive practices. Although perhaps since I live in the modern day US, I should start believing what my country’s government is proving they are capable of. 🙃

@diogop @ecosia Ecosia, is still full of usa depends. WHY does it call itself european.

@nil @aral Yeah while extensions like these can defeat them, it does defeat most browser built in ad blockers, dns based ad blockers, and platforms that cant easily have a browser extension installed.The behavior of this anti-adblock is almost malware like, it intentionally abuses and destroys CSS (to setup the scene that your ad blocker broke the site), spams JS Alert Popups, iframes, http redirects, just to prevent viewing the page
