    Saruman was already rotted by lust for the ring when he began to use the Palantir and then came into the presence of a dominating and corrupting will. So yeah... plenty of real wor…

    Yes exactly. They make a constructive IP assertion with the watermark claim of origin that persists across mutation. (ie the "artist" signs their work) They then quitclaim the IP a…

    Yes I did read it years ago and again today? If you read my original point you'd see I said "weird DRM glorp" which you and other have tried, and failed to only closely parse "DRM"…

    Yes... they do matter, perhaps using care in your understanding before attempting to nitpick? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management#Wate...

    Its 2026... people are deliberately choosing to live in their own realities with no care about objective facts or moral choices. So weird images are a big problem? No they don't ma…

    So 999 people that are just making an image need to be DRM'ed so that you might catch the 1 person making "realistic but deceptive" images... like this is some kind of special case…
