Artists release silent album in protest at AI copyright proposals. Under a new UK government law proposal artists would have to actively opt out of allowing their music/voices to be used at will by AI companies. Surely it should be opt in. Thoughts? www.bbc.com/news/article...

Duh, yeah! Culture war right wingers actively discriminate against women, POC and LGBT, while leftists advocate for social justice. They won't work with Greta Thunberg because she demands action on the climate crisis. We won't work with Musk because he encourages neo-nazis.

People shocked by this statement are likening it to one made by fascist dictators. It's worse: this is the self-justfication used by terrorists everywhere

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

The UK government will need to answer the following: 1 What’s in it for the EU (not just the UK)? 2 What does the UK propose to offer as a quid pro quo? 3 How does such a request for labour-market access square with Starmer’s red lines? www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/news/u...

🧵Mark Zuckerberg’s cravenly cynical decision to get rid of fact checking on Facebook, Instagram and Threads is reminiscent of the opening scene of The Godfather, where various local businessmen come to show their fealty to the mafia boss. 1/15

Sitting down to compose a hopeful message for 2025 is a tough ask given the year we’ve just had. Even glib sentiments are hard to come by. The defeat of pro-democracy forces in the US presidential election still weighs like a heavy anchor on my attempts to move on. 1/11

Napster, Tidal and Apple Music all pay artists much more than Spotify and pay ALL artists, regardless of their popularity. Apart from Apple Music, you can also easily switch your profile (saved albums, playlists and followed artists) to more ethical services using Soundiiz - just saying.
