Almost one in six UK adults admit to having seen deepfake pornographic images, an annual review has found. The second International AI Safety report, which reviews possible risks from the development of Artificial Intelligence, said the use of AI to generate pornographic images of real people is of “particular concern”.

The Chilean players’ association officially became a union in December, and its president, Javiera Moreno, believes there needs to be women’s representation in players’ unions around the world.

The result is a nationwide system that cannot see, count, or support male victims. Australia’s national DV risk frameworks, including ANROWS guidance and state‑based risk tools derived from it, only detect male‑typical aggression. For male victims, protection orders against their female abusers become a shortcut to “mission complete”, not the beginning of an investigation. Australia has created an interlocking national system of institutionalised misidentification because it has created a national system that only recognises one gender’s victim profile. Suicide is the national fatality pathway for male DV victims — but because Australia refuses to measure it, male deaths are quietly administratively erased.

TLDRRussia has attempted to fully block WhatsApp, according to a spokesperson for Meta, the company that owns WhatsApp. This move is seen as a backward step by the company and is part of the Kremlin's aim to achieve a sovereign internet, which is an online space cut off from Western technology and foreign influence.
