Denmark plans to become the first country in the world to give its citizens copyright over their faces and voices in an effort to clamp down on “deepfakes” — videos, audio clips and images that are digitally doctored to spread false information.

Nic Cage would.

Love this idea

Excellent move and a good step towards using signing keys to authenticate genuine content, something I think will become inevitable across the board.

You probably claim copyright infringement if a shady cam face recognition service takes your image. And they'd have to remove it

This reads like a legit version of SovCit theory

Heh, yeah. But probably just a legal way to be able to stop agencies selling your data, since then they are profiting off of copyrighted "works"

The article is unclear but that's my reading of it too. It's obviously infeasible to sue everybody who does this (especially if you're a public figure, it would be hundreds of lawsuits) so I think the endgame is that if the content doesn't have a signature, we assume it's fake.

It would be almost impossible to know who even had a copy, but maybe it also gives a legal avenue to stop agencies selling your face data, since they'd be profiting off of copyrighted "works"

This idea will be shot down in America because somehow someway all ai companies will have first dibs on digital versions of your face

I can feel it

How is this supposed to work? What about identical twins? What about people who look alike (more common than you’d think)?

I suppose it will depend on how the law is worded, however, when someone is being impersonated, that would be a pretty clear case.

I read feces, and got confused for a sec, lol

Can't trust the Fae

I still have a hunch one day certain types of people will wear a pendant that generates a new one-time-password every second along with a 360 body cam that captures their movements and the screen of the pendant.

Veo 3 isn’t too bad but we don’t know what it’s like to live in a world where Veo 15 is open source, local, free, and “abliterated” (uncensored). The first time someone claims it wasn’t them punching the victim in the face but the victim lured them to a trackable location and then released a fake video, demand and supply will follow.

That wasn’t me. Talk to my lawyers; they’ll connect you with my chosen Big 4 accounting firm who has the actual OTPs from that timestamp.
