Dear Colleague,

In only weeks, UN Member States will formally begin the ratification process that will bring a new Cybercrime Treaty into force. The treaty allows for sexting between adolescents and adults, and allows for child pornography so long as it is created through Artificial Intelligence. This is a huge problem. Stefano Gennarini, J.D. reports.

UN agencies are using Artificial Intelligence to spy on kids in the global south in order to change their attitudes on abortion, gender, and other issues of sexuality. Iulia-Elena Cazan reports.

Spread the word. Be daring. Keep the faith.

Yours sincerely,

Austin Ruse
