What should we do about nonconsensual AI nudes? Personal privacy and sexual autonomy – and the prevention of serious sexual violations – may warrant consent-based restrictions on the creation and distribution of both real and synthetic sexual images. https://genderpolicyreport.umn.edu/sexual-privacy-in-the-ai-era/

Sexual Privacy in the AI Era - Gender Policy Report

The jurists who wrote Griswold could not have anticipated the shifting nature and significance of privacy in our technological landscape. How can we balance the rights of women and girls to be protected from image-based abuse with the need to protect the privacy of Internet users?

Are new laws going to solve the problem of nonconsensual deepfake nudes? Probably not. Why do these apps even exist without some way to verify consent? https://www.vox.com/24145522/ai-deepfake-apps-teens-ban-laws

“I’ve read every study and report I could find that looked specifically at the economics of bike lanes since 1984 — 32 research articles, to be exact. The results show that making streets friendlier for bikes — and sidewalks friendlier for pedestrians — is actually good for business. The rise of “complete streets” and “road diets,” as urban planners call them, has been a huge boon to businesses in cities.” https://www.businessinsider.com/bike-lanes-good-for-business-studies-better-streets-2024-3

If you can't review an ms, tell the editors immediately! They won't hate you because you'll be making their lives significantly easier - they can go to the next reviewer on their list rather than having to wait through weeks of being ignored. Plus, there's nothing like the buzz you'll get from saying 'no'.
