Much-Loved Disney World Ride Reopens And Promptly Shuts Down After Mishap, Then Reopens https://ift.tt/vUeaRK5 One of Walt Disney World's most popular attractions, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, reopened on May 3 after about 1.5 years of downtime for refurbishments and upgrades. The reopening did not go entirely to plan, as cast members had to use a fire extinguisher on the Magic Kingdom ride to deal with an issue, prompting an evacuation of guests and the ride to close temporarily as the issue was addressed.

The blog post says that although deepfake porn isn't a problem on Twitch, which has pre-existing guidelines banning explicit content, it is an issue that affects mostly female streamers who use or are partnered with the platform. "Though we have the most control over what happens on our own service, we want to help streamers protect themselves or respond quickly to this kind of situation anywhere it arises," the statement from Twitch reads.

To that end, Twitch is updating its policies to include harsher penalties for anyone on its platform caught promoting, creating, or sharing this kind of imagery. The policy update includes a new term for what is generally known as "deepfake porn," with Twitch labelling it "synthetic non-consensual exploitative images" or "synthetic NCEI" for short. Twitch explains that the term "pornography" is inappropriate, as porn should refer to consensual acts undertaken by willing performers, while "synthetic images" is used to make sure the policy covers the breadth of techniques that could be used to create non-consensual imagery.
