But when somebody calls you out on that, you can call out the person that called you about not telling your viewers to not donate hefty amounts? Pokimane is a hypocrite. If she didn't call people out for calling her out for not telling her viewers to stop donating, this drama would have never happened. I don't think Pokimane isn't one of those who has their cleavage staring straight at the camera. I mean those Twitch thots are on a whole nother level. But if Pokimane had a problem with Pretty privilege she needs to address it without trying to flag people calling her out. Her flagging videos shows she's taking advantage of pretty privilege. So she's a hypocrite in my opinion.

Jesus.. they need to outlaw the use of 'deep fakes' using real people's faces. I dont even get how that's not illegal.

[@a_lucientes]

@@Wharbuckz7 So, you cannot play a 3 second music clip without it violating copyright, yet you can take someone's actual face and add it to someone else's body, make porn out of it and sell it. And that is somehow legal. How? If I took that same celebrity's face and made a deep fake car commercial, or soap commercial, ot any other type of commercial, that would automatically be illegal. No question about it. Yet somehow, the law does not apply to porn, even though it is also making use of someone's unlicensed likeness for commercial gain. How does that make sense? Ive been trying to figure out what the difference is legally.. but have not been able to. I found a pretty extensive article titled: *_Is deepfake pornography illegal? It depends._* by Russell, but it'snot very concise and Im still not clear on the difference. I feel like a lawyer needs to chime in and explain the difference.

[@timesplitterlad]

I have a hand in both legal and cyber matters so let me try to answer this for you. The difference you're looking for here is the industry in which the deep fake is being used in. What I mean by that is that the law has not developed well in keeping up with the digital age. There are a lot of things people have gotten away with on the internet that would be illegal if done elsewhere. Look at all of the digital coins, KZbinrs illegally advertising coins to their large fan bases to then dump them at peak (the SEC would have a field day if this was done in any other medium), NFTs, reaction content copyright drama, etc.. It's not that people are sitting around thinking that this should be a grey area or maybe not made to be illegal. It's more that, according to current law, these activities would be hard to nab someone for in a court of law. Our 900 year old politicians can't really even wrap their heads around constantly developing tech, so trying to encompass it all legally is even harder. AOC put up a bill years ago regarding twitch and the military using the platform to "manipulate" kids into signing up for the service and most of the politicians in congress literally couldn't even understand the subject enough to debate it. Point being that this stuff will probably all be illegal in a clearer context soon because like you said it would be illegal if done anywhere else, but you just have to give the justice system some time to develop laws around new tech (a lot of time actually). Also keep in mind that international issues will still apply even if they do create new laws that extend directly to deep fake stuff. If the person who made the deep fake is in China, for instance, it's going to be very difficult to stop or penalize the activity as it is with many of the crimes we face today. @@a_lucientes

[@BlackKoshka23]

I don't like Pokimane, but she's right, she shouldn't have to endure such harassment. Also, just because something is common, doesn't mean it's normal or that it should be allowed to continue to be a common occurrence.

[@Idaanisgone]

W bro, nothing else to say

[@babynugget706]

She shouldn't but it comes with the territory. If your brand is based on sexualizing yourself, don't be surprised when you're sexualized. She sold her soul for views and cash, and got very rich doing so. This is just the consequence of this "trade". This is no different than being a prostitute and then wondering why your clients don't respect you. The honest truth is, if she was a male, she would be lost in the wind with zero viewership. At least streamers like Ninja have to rely on competence and skill when playing games to be famous. People watch him for example, for his skill and plays. That is how he is valued, while Pokimane is valued for her looks. Had she actually had any skill, she may attract a different fanbase. But unfortunately if looks is all you can provide, you will only attract a certain group of individuals to your content.

[@JJFeelsRightIThink]

shes not harassed, and she doesnt face sexism. twitch is sexist towards men like Jidion and will do anything to protect the simp queen

[@TheReluctantVlogger]

Misogyny is the most acceptable and commonly practiced form of bigotry in the world. I can’t tell you how many examples I have of men openly demonizing homophobia or racism while within the same half hour say very sexist things and laugh about it. I mean, look at the way words used to insult women are thrown around so easily, while similar words used to hate on other groups are banned entirely. I’ve been really surprised and disappointed in my life to see just how much living and working as a female woman in world has affected me and the outcome of my career, my efforts, relationships, etc. I never would’ve expected that when I graduated high school. I also believed it was a thing of the past. It sickens me to imagine how much worse it is in places like Saudi Arabia. Why is it that so many men hate the very people they desire most? What pathetic insecurity must they be filled with? But “might is right.” Even if it isn’t, it wins. How very sad. I appreciate patient, loving, respectful men more and more all the time.

*this is coming from a woman who has also been in the gaming industry:* if you're a woman and thousands of people are paying you just to watch you / hear you whilst you're basically doing nothing but average human functions, then you are delusional if you don't think that it's because you're being "simped for", and that obviously comes from a sexual motive. THERE IS NO WAY that she is surprised by the fact that somebody clarified that. And it baffles me that she is enraged whenever somebody is pointing out the truth, because she is big enough in the industry to carry on and not comment about it. Let's be real, to be popular you either have to be funny, skillful, unique, or pretty. In Pokimane's case, she's popular because she's pretty.

[@darktrozo1469]

I guess all the big male streamers are being watched purely because they are oh so funny and skillful, not like Poki who is just pretty. Every time one of xQc's streams ends I sit there, in awe, looking at the silent black screen, trying to process how incredibly funny and skilled he is at... watching YT videos and being permanently involved in drama. Those guys totally not take advantage of lonely men and pretend they are old time friends, to the point a big streamer once had a fan cross half the world to come live in his house because he genuinely thought this streamer knew or cared he exists, look it up, it's true. And yet, the male ecelebs are not harassed or judged for taking advantage of their audience. Really activates the almonds, doesn't it.

Yeah exactly. She could leave at any point. There are so many women who are just as beautiful and just as good at video games but who choose not to stream. Whether because the money isn't worth the obsessive fans and stalkers or maybe they have other dreams or have too much integrity to pretend to be single to gain more money. There are benefits and drawbacks to any job. No one is forcing her to be a streamer so I don't really feel bad for her. She has plenty of money she could retire, go to university, do whatever she wanted to do. She just CHOOSES to stream. Just like if she had chosen to become a nurse like me dealing with illness and bacteria is just a drawback of the job. I currently have covid and am home right now.
