STOP SCROLLING

Stop scrolling because you need to know that there was a terrifying ruling this week that found that child s.a. material, it is a, I generated, is constitutionally protected under the first amendment. Those images are generated and the images remain in your home. Terrify you. And I'm a lawyer. I'm a journalist. I read through the entire 7th circuit court of appeals ruling. Let me talk about it. The ruling involved a man named Steven Anderegg. He used an AI image generator called Stable Diffusion to create hundreds of photo realistic images depicting minors in sexual situations. Child s.a. material. He was caught when he sent one of those child over Instagram. Indicted with four criminal counts, including the producing, and possessing the images, charge at issue. The charge was dismissed by the district court because of two Supreme Court rulings. The first, Stanley versus Georgia 1969, which ruled that the government cannot prosecute you for privately owning obscene material inside your own home. And then a 2002 court ruling in Ashcroft versus Free Speech Coalition, images only resembling sea sam material would be considered in the 7th circuit court of appeals was bound by these prior precedents from the Supreme Court. The prior precedents, the seventh circuit court of appeals affirms the lower court's ruling, which dismissed the possession and distribution charge because many of the government's arguments concerning the grooming of children, the normalization of abuse were already rejected by the United States Supreme Court back in 2002. Now, as it stands, a person can produce see some material using a I, can possess that material inside their own home, and that action is constitutionally protected speech under the because of prior Supreme Court precedent, and because there is an A.I. regulation in this and the 7th appeals has issued a major warning to lawmakers, saying, we can't do anything. You. And this should terrify you because the law is being left behind right now by the lawmakers to create new law. Let me know any questions. Follow for more.
