Sure. Anyone can be traced using any photo. But we aren’t talking about any photo. We’re talking about nude photos, which—particularly for women—can bring all kinds of unwanted attention. Facial recognition brings with it the possibility of that attention spilling over into real life, which is both frightening and dangerous.

Nothing you've said here is untrue, but it's kind of an argument for shutting down the whole forum isn't it.

Sure, I suppose. But the issue being discussed was why some women wear masks, and whether doing so was justified. One commenter above questioned whether or not there really were any negative consequences of being seen naked on the internet. I was just responding to that, and pointing out they there are.

Regarding this forum… my position has always been that anyone who participates in a public nude event understands they can/will be photographed; so I don’t have a problem posting/reposting such photos. I do draw a line at doxxing or leaving breadcrumbs for others to doxx the participants. Because regardless of whether or not the participant understood the risk of being doxxed, the person actually doxxing them is the one that compromises their safety.

Not to mention, such activities could potentially bring the wrong kind of attention to this forum. We’ve always kind of flown under the radar here, and I’d personally prefer to keep it that way.

which is why the use of facial recognition and other AI tools should be banned from this forum altogether - the cost outweighs the benefits imo

How about we go the whole hog and not look at any women who have not actually posed nude for our enjoyment. Anyone else should be off limits as they have not done it to be looked at. That way they can get total protection, and we dont have to worry about being hypocritical about saying we worry about them but still stroking to them

It’s not hypocritical to enjoy looking at women while also not wishing any harm to come to them. It’s not wrong to enjoying looking at women. It is wrong to harm someone.

In between looking and harming lies a vast array of actions that could potentially lead to harm; and it’s a question of judgement where to draw the line. Doxxing is a place where most online communities draw a red line, for all the obvious reasons.

It’s not all or nothing. This community existed for decades before these AI tools became commonly available, and to the best of anyone’s knowledge it has never caused anyone harm. In the rare instance when a woman asked for her photos to be removed from this board, we complied with her wishes immediately. While at the same time we’ve also had plenty of women tell us appreciate seeing their photos here. Now that AI tools ARE available, there’s a question of what responsibility we have to mitigate harm. None of us are perfect, and I don’t think there’s a perfect solution to any of this. But I think we can do better than shrug.

I agree about harming anybody. I have never done so and never would. I have also never doxxed anyone. The idea is abhorrent.
I don't think that we should stop looking at naked women, heaven forbid, I was just making the point. As much as we don't wish any harm lets not kid ourselves that they are giving their consent to be gawped at. It's no less disrespectful just because they don't know we are doing it.
Facial recognition is here to stay but at least at the moment it's far from fool proof and probably only works less than 30% of occasions.

You are so right. Some unmasked girls.
