Memphis Press isn't the problem. You're scrutinizing progressively smaller targets when the real problem is Big Tech and it's relationship with the government. If Rule of Law is not obeyed, there is nothing that your local press can do.

I recommend taking matters into your own hands and ignoring X altogether. It's what I do, and my enjoyment of life is not significantly diminished as a result. Same goes for the rest of Big Tech, but I'll let you reach those conclusions naturally.

    Sure there is: report it.

    Ignoring it is the opposite of taking matters into your own hands.

> When deepfakes and CSAM are being generated by data centers in our city

No-one has credibly accused Grok of making CSAM, surely?

By definition CSAM is a record of real abuse, so cannot be generated by a data centre. Sexual deepfaking children is not the same thing.

    Legally it is CSAM.

      In the United States, the PROTECT Act of 2003 made significant changes to the law regarding virtual child pornography. Any realistic appearing computer generated depiction that is indistinguishable from a depiction of an actual minor in sexual situations or engaging in sexual acts is illegal under 18 U.S.C. § 2252A.

      Your source does not say that. Your source says only that it illegal. Illegal does not make it CSAM.
