Ignore the fact that it’s coming from Breitbart. This is really freaky in more than one way.

FTA:

Against stiff competition, the alliance of tech and media giants has devised a plan that may constitute Big Tech’s most brazen power-grab yet.

According to Microsoft’s press release, it has partnered with several other organizations to form the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA).

Put simply, the purpose of this organization is to devise a system whereby all content on the internet can be traced back to its author.

The press release states that it will develop these specifications for “common asset types and formats,” meaning videos, documents, audio, and images.

Whether it’s a meme, an audio remix, or a written article, the goal is to ensure that when content reaches the internet, it will come attached with a set of signals allowing its provenance — meaning authorship — can be detected.

    Well, let’s agree to disagree on the “derailing” topic. As for insulting people, I just said his comment was dumb. I don’t see how that’s an insult. Even intelligent people say dumb stuff from time to time, nothing wrong with it, I do say dumb stuff as well.

      This is not the kind of behaviour we like to see here. If you keep acting like this then you will be banned.

        Feel free to ban me anytime. I will make sure not to come back after the fact, too. After today, I don’t see much of a difference between this place and Reddit when it comes to attitudes, anyway. At least Reddit has a huge user base, and you can engage more people. So if banning me helps anything, go ahead!

        Cheers

          Calm down FFS, kitsune. There is no way out if you fuel the conflict. It always ends up in a negative result.

      It was not my intention to derail. To be honest I had no idea there could be such attention on a single thread on lemmy yet ( shows it’s getting more popular!) People aren’t going to take the news seriously if ir’s reported by Breitbart instead of a more respected news outline. This doesn’t mean it has to be a liberal or leftist news outlet instead, just one that doesn’t require to go: “It know it’s Breitbart but hear me out!”
