Jess Davies: Grok deepfakes – sexual abuse isn’t a bug, it’s a feature | Good Law Project Men using images to abuse women didn’t start with Grok – while tech bros are making money out of online harm, women will keep paying the price, says Jess Davies

I am pleased the Government has done another u turn.

Attempting to cancel elections, on top of scrapping jury trials, mandatory ID cards, criminalising peaceful protest and harassment of journalists is part of a disturbing authoritarian trend of this caretaker Prime Minister.
