A sex offender convicted of making more than 1,000 indecent images of children has been banned from using any “AI creating tools” for the next five years in the first known case of its kind.
Anthony Dover, 48, was ordered by a UK court “not to use, visit or access” artificial intelligence generation tools without the prior permission of police as a condition of a sexual harm prevention order imposed in February.
The ban prohibits him from using tools such as text-to-image generators, which can make lifelike pictures based on a written command, and “nudifying” websites used to make explicit “deepfakes”.
Dover, who was given a community order and £200 fine, has also been explicitly ordered not to use Stable Diffusion software, which has reportedly been exploited by paedophiles to create hyper-realistic child sexual abuse material, according to records from a sentencing hearing at Poole magistrates court.
What do you mean? Like how would they catch him?
In the States parole/probation means you lose most of your civil liberties. In other words, if this was the U.S. a PO would check his phone and possibly his computer. Possibly even pull ISP records depending on how bad they want to catch you/how full of shit they think you are.
How will they even know he’s doing it? It doesn’t say they’re monitoring his internet connection. And even if they were monitoring his internet connection, he could go to some public wifi hotspot and sit in a car and do it.
I edited my comment. You’re too quick.
But yeah, he could get around it. But, he’s an addict. He’s going to want that porn other places then his car and make mistakes. If he’s tech savvy, he can probably stay one step ahead of his probation agent (assuming he has one). If he’s not, he’ll slip up because he’s addicted, and that’s how people get caught.
Is it weird that the whole detect/evade game just sounds super fun to me?
Not really. You’re probably a bit of a dopamine/norepinephrine (adrenaline) junky, like most Westerners. It’s bred into us by consumer culture.
It’s weird that it’s not weird though.
Nahh, I’m not so much about the chase as the metagame.
Might want to checkout cyber security and pen testing. It’s not the same thing exactly but it kinda close in some regards.
That’s probably as close as I can get without picking out a taboo and running with it. I wonder if some drug lords get bored with the game and pretend to be pedophiles to catch bigger fish.
What do you mean by metagame? Like you find the cat and mouse stuff that is happening fascinating?
It’s like hunting down a secret base in Minecraft. When you find it, they use a better trick next time! The objective for security endeavors is always distinct but the methods are always changing as everyone gets better!
Put monitoring software on his devices.
He could just get a burner phone. Realistically, there is no way to police this.
This is pretty similar to restraining orders, make it more difficult and make the consequences more severe.
In the modern world when we have cellphones that can do pretty much anything… it’s fucking hard. There will be a parole officer and monitoring software with periodic physical inspections along with watching his purchases. (That’s, at least, th American approach).
Usually the way it works is that when this dude slips up once he goes to prison for violating his court order.
Or a burner laptop/Chromebook/whatever. Couple that with a VPN, using a neighbor’s wifi, public hotspots, etc, I don’t really see how they can realistically enforce someone motivated to do what they’re gonna do.
Have part of his probation be having his property searched to check for such devices.
There’s a log for everything. There really is. It’s just hard to piece it all together.
