I understand that xAI has recently indicated that it will geoblock content where it violates laws of a particular jurisdiction. However, there are many who would argue that this response comes after significant harm has already occurred. Victims of intimate deepfakes continue to live with the consequences long after content is removed or restricted.
Simply from a privacy and victim protection perspective, what does that say about the adequacy of current regulatory approaches, which often rely on reactive enforcement rather than preventative safeguards?
