Who said the video was made without permission? That is a rare case. The far far more common situation is where both parties consented to the video at the time, but later one side uploaded/shared it without permission.

Just look at all the pictures/videos from that iphone celeb hack a few years back. They all consented at the time. Many even took the pictures themselves (selfies, very common with teenagers too). The harm came far later when the material became public.

I don't know where you got "made without permission" from in the post you're responding to. This discussion appears to be about "uploaded without permission" in terms of the OP and the one you directly replied to.

And then even in that even-more-obviously-bad made-without-permission case, the argument here seems to be "we can't make tools to handle these [assumed rare] cases because false positives"?

Is the harm of an uploader having to follow up with a human about a false positive seen as WORSE than the harm of having these videos uploaded over and over and over...?

> Who said the video was made without permission?

So something the legal system doesnt take into account is people changing their minds.

Why do people changed their minds, because their chemistry changes, this is seen as aging or might even be a short term change like getting drunk, going through stress, even having people you dont want to know, knowing about it. So it shows even the law isnt perfect.

I would say that the legal system is open to revokable consent, it just does not currently have the capability of having that record

Similar to how the legal system recognizes that verbal business contracts are valid (a form of consent), it just does not have a way of proving them essentially rendering them invalid.

So it boils down to exploiting peoples knowledge and when you look at the dire educational system in many parts of the world, all I can conclude from it, is its just good enough to make you a slave.

Not me — that was a quote from the comment I was responding to. :) I agree with the implication that the question should have been about publishing rather than creating.
