Erik Jonker (npub1mhr…dz3s) Prof. Emily M. Bender(she/her) (npub1z0k…pp3u) When you walk into a public place, are you giving anyone else present in that public place permission to do a 3-d scan of your face and body and then use that scan to make a puppet that looks almost exactly like you? Are you, further, giving them permission to use that puppet for whatever purpose they choose, without your consent? What if they use it to make bigoted comments, for instance, or to tell lies? What does "going out in public" even mean, if not this broad permission to use your 3-d likeness however anyone out there sees fit?
The fact that the technology exists to perform some task does not immediately confer permission to use the technology to perform that task. The existence of a capability and the permission to use it are separate issues and we keep them separate in virtually all areas where technology and human life intersect, for very good reason. Why on Earth would it be any different when it comes to posting online?
