no matter how disfigured her face would be, you would always recognize your wife elise.

So, Discord has added a feature that lets other people "enhance" or "edit" your images with different AI apps. It looks like this:

Currently, you can't opt out from this at all. But here's few things you can do as a protest.

FOR SERVERS YOU ARE AN ADMIN IN

Go to Roles -> @/everyone roles -> Scroll all the way down to External Apps, and disable it. This won't delete the option, but it will make people receive a private message instead when they use it, protecting your users:

You should also make it a bannable offense to edit other user's images with AI. Here's how I worded it in my server, feel free to copypaste:

Do not modify other people's images with AI under ANY circumstances, such as with the Discord "enhancement" features, amidst others. This is a bannable offense.

COMPLAIN TO DISCORD

There's few ways to go around this. First, you can go to https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/requests/new , select Help and Support -> Feedback/New Feature Request, and write your message, as seen in the screenshot below.

For the message, here's some points you can bring up:

Concerns about harassment (such as people using this feature to bully others)

Concerns about privacy (concerns on how External Apps may break privacy or handle the data in the images, and how it may break some legislations, such as GDPR)

Concerns about how this may impact minors (these features could be used with pictures of irl minors shared in servers, for deeply nefarious purposes)

BE VERY CLEAR about "I will refuse to buy Nitro and will cancel my subscription if this feature remains as it is", since they only care about fucking money

Word them as you'd like, add onto them as you need. They sometimes filter messages that are copypasted templates, so finding ways to word them on your own is helpful.

ADDING: You WILL NEED to reply to the mail you receive afterwards for the message to get sent to an actual human! Otherwise it won't reach anyone

UNSUSCRIBE FROM NITRO

This is what they care about the most. Unsuscribe from Nitro. Tell them why you unsuscribed on the way out. DO NOT GIVE THEM MONEY. They're a company. They take actions for profit. If these actions do not get them profit, they will need to backtrack. Mass-unsuscribing from WOTC's DnD beyond forced them to back down with the OGL, this works.

LEAVE A ONE-STAR REVIEW ON THE APP

This impacts their visibility on the App store. Write why are you leaving the one-star review too.

Regardless of your stance on AI, I think we can agree that having no way for users to opt out of these pictures is deeply concerning, specially when Discord is often used to share selfies. It's also a good time to remember internet privacy and safety- Maybe don't post your photos in big open public servers, if you don't want to risk people doing edits or modifications of them with AI (or any other way). Once it's posted, it's out of your control.

Anyways, please reblog for visibility- This is a deeply concerning topic!

After thinking a while about seavbo, I finally found what I can enjoy about it. I translated my champwatt/seavbo text from Seawatts POV in English for y’all🙂‍↕️ I also tagged them by their respectful colors, just Incase and to make It more understandable. Please, enjoy!

——————————————————————————

“I don't think Seawatt didn’t feel anything for the Champion at all. You (my friend) say that Seawatt doesn't love Champion, and I agree with you! I don't think he loved him, but he's like. I don't think he wouldn’t care? He enjoyed his company. He knows that he love him, that he take care of him, he thinks about him. I would even say Seawatt is the only one who is important to him in civilization.

But it's still not serious. Perhaps, Champion understands this too.

Seawatt has a goal, and before their relationship becomes more serious, if at all, he must be sure that Champion won’t tell him to fuck off with the idea of returning the fighter level. Or maybe, in the end, he won’t starve and kill them like the rest of civilization. That's what's important to Seawatt.

Champion is not a good person. Seawatt too. They're both terribly offended and piqued by everyone. It is difficult to build a healthy relationship in such conditions. Especially, when their affair is built on lies and mistrust. Champion doesn't love real Seawatt. He loves whoever he's allowed to see. He doesn't know the man. From the very beginning, Seawatt pretends to be someone Champion would like. He's not a victim of abuse, of course. I don't think he suffered with it. My words above are not about the poor guy wearing a mask!!1! I'm sure he did it with an absolute understanding of what he was doing, consent and confidence. And yet, with such "freedom of choice," Seawatt is not free with him, never will be.

But Evbo is completely different. He is honest and genuinely kind. He helps unconditionally, even to those who wronged him in the past, or keeps messing with him currently. And he helped Seawatt too. He is ready to fight for all people.

It's comfortable with Champion. Evbo won't let you relax, but because he wants the best for you. He brings... life to life!!

People like Evbo are really changing the world. And it's fascinating, you want to reach for something like this. Evbo wants you to work, learn, and make mistakes. He wants you to become stronger, better. It's a joy when you see progress in what you like. In your life. And when you can share this experience with others.

No amount of pleasure will give you complete happiness when you are alone. And Champion would bring the whole world to his feet, but why all this if his heart is not calm? And Evbo offers to live without fear. Seawatt would like to finally breathe a sigh of peace for himself and for all those who are dear to him. We don't know if he told Champion about his past, but he opened up to Evbo almost immediately. I like it so much that he trusted him despite everything. What is it, if not true freedom?

Perhaps, Seawatt thought Champion would be the same like Evbo is. Would be a better ruler than the old man. Perhaps, he saw in his rage a desire for change. Perhaps not. Perhaps, he already understood what kind of person he was, and wanted to drown the damned civilization completely, through his hands. Perhaps all at once. But in the end, in order to change the civilization for the better, Champion needs to fight with himself. With his complexes and fears, and his ego. Evbo always understood what he wanted. And in comparison, Champion looks like an insecure, little boy.”
