A very ugly side to the technology, I absolutely think this should be considered on the same level as revenge porn and child pornography.

always be wary when they say either “protect the children” or " for your safety"
It’s not exactly fault of AI. It’s a human problem. People have been doing this for years now but AI does make it easier.
