What if someone posts slander and libelous statements on a platform that you do not frequent? What choice do you have? What recourse do you have if someone posts something along this proud OpenAI demo with your face on truth.social? https://bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:j5fb...
There are legal avenues in many jurisdictions for slander or libel. Ultimately, though, who cares what someone posts about you and how could we expect some arbiter to decide exactly what is okay to post, especially when the concern is potential libel?
Yep, libel laws are a rule that gets enforced by the government and the platforms should be liable to follow the laws. But the post I’m responding to asserts that people should change platforms- which is not a solution that addresses the issue at hand.
