More than 1/3 of the site has to be porn before the law kicks in [0].

I'm probably thinking too much like an engineer and not a lawyer, but what if the sites this bill is intended to apply to add enough SFW content to push the NSFW below 1/3 of the total? Or does the phrasing of "distributes" mean it needs to be <1/3 of consumption and not just <1/3 of what's available?


I think we've finally found use for AI image generation that doesn't end up in a dystopian hellhole (I suppose the morally uptight would disagree). For every porn video uploaded, upload 2 pieces of AI generated nightmare fuel of the same length.


Result (like most bad internet legislation): More content on the internet will be pushed towards one of a few centralized websites (Reddit, Twitter, etc.) which have enough content to dilute it and/or lawyers to handle it.


So to get around this, porn sites have to post 2/3 of fake content generated by LLMs?
