In the last week or so, 10 out of the 25 most popular cameos using my face are various fetishes, including one where I’m a centaur-woman pregnant with octoplets. It’s not just me, either. I’ve seen this kind of content made with cameos of other women: female creators, another woman tech reporter, and a female employee of a prominent venture-capital firm.

I mean that’s basically the setup we have here as well. Problem isn’t that… well duh if you consent to your picture being on the internet this happens… The problem is, this genie is out of the bottle.

We already know, if it isn’t codified into law… these things will be adapted by companies that don’t care about the rules… and existing companies will also be more generous of what they can consent to etc…
