静态网站悖论
个人网站的两种不同实现方式：一种是复杂的内容管理系统（CMS），另一种是简单的静态 HTML 文件。文章指出，尽管大多数普通用户倾向于使用复杂的解决方案（如 WordPress），但实际上，只有少数专业软件工程师能够选择更简单的静态网站。

前两天刚好听朋友说 square space 已经涨到了近乎搞笑的 $25 月费，做不用来盈利的个人博客实在难以 justify。这篇文章中吐槽得很在点子上：
normal users are stuck with a bunch of greedy clowns that make them pay for every little thing, all while wasting ungodly amounts of computational power to render what could have been a static website in 99% of cases.
普通用户被困在了一群屁大点功能都要收费的贪婪小丑手里，与此同时浪费着人神共愤额度的算力来渲染 99% 的情况下都可以作为静态的网站。
当然原文中说的“只有少数专业软件工程师才能选择更简单的静态网站”略微夸张并不认同，因为静态站至少是比 self-host 的动态 CMS 少太多维护了。我的 backlog 里也一直躺了篇安利新手用静态站并拉踩 WP 的文，不过网上这种文已经有无数了也还是拦不住前赴后继往各种 CMS 的坑里冲的新手，觉得写了又有什么意义呢就还搁着没写。（当然迟早会像以前反复造的无数轮子一样被废话欲战胜的 but not today）

📖AI “Poverty Porn” and the Ethics of Fundraising Imagery
A new Lancet Global Health article by Arsenii Alenichev and colleagues exposes how nonprofits are increasingly using AI-generated “poverty porn”: emotionally charged, stereotypical depictions of suffering, to drive donations. Researchers found over 100 such AI images circulating on LinkedIn and X, many echoing outdated fundraising aesthetics. Despite long-standing criticism of exploitative imagery, generative AI now makes it cheaper and easier to reproduce, while companies like Adobe and Freepik profit from licensing these visuals.
The paper highlights that existing content policies by AI and stock image firms fail to address this form of exploitation, even as they regulate other abuses like sexualized content. Some companies, such as Freepik, say they comply with current regulations and would welcome clearer international standards. Meanwhile, researchers warn that substituting “fake” victims for real ones doesn’t eliminate ethical concerns — it risks reinforcing racial and cultural bias while eroding public trust.
Alenichev and co-authors call for transparency in AI image generation, disclosure of prompts used, and greater support for local photographers creating authentic, respectful representations of global health realities. As AI reshapes storytelling and fundraising, governance frameworks must evolve to prevent digital exploitation disguised as empathy.

🇬🇧Musicians Fight AI Copyright Changes in Silence
Over 1,000 musicians, including Kate Bush and Cat Stevens, have released a silent album to oppose the UK government’s proposed copyright changes, which could allow AI companies to train on creative works without permission. The 12-track album, titled "Is This What We Want?", spells out a clear message: “The British government must not legalise music theft to benefit AI companies.”
Artists argue that the proposal reverses fundamental copyright principles, effectively handing their life’s work to AI developers for free. Figures like Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Andrew Lloyd Webber have joined the opposition, warning that weakening copyright laws will undermine the UK’s creative industries. With public consultation closing, the battle over AI and intellectual property is far from over.

🇮🇹Italian DPA Bans Deep Nude App Over Human Dignity and Privacy Risks
Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (Italian DPA) has officially banned the app Clothoff, which enables users to generate “deep nude” images of real people, including minors, without consent or verification. The authority highlighted that the app allows both free and paid creation of fake explicit content without any disclosure that the images are AI-generated.
The DPA emphasized that the ban was necessary due to “high risks to fundamental rights and freedoms,” particularly concerning human dignity, privacy, and personal data protection. An investigation has been launched to address the broader ecosystem of nudity apps. Recent Italian news reports show how the misuse of such generative tools has already caused significant social alarm.

🇺🇸Google’s Gemini AI Caught in Copyright Controversy
Google’s new Gemini 2.0 Flash model has been found capable of removing watermarks from copyrighted images, including those from Getty Images and other stock media providers. Unlike competing models like OpenAI’s GPT-4o and Anthropic’s Claude, which refuse to alter watermarked images, Gemini 2.0 Flash not only removes them but also reconstructs the missing portions—raising serious copyright concerns.
While Google labels the feature as “experimental” and “not for production use,” its lack of built-in safeguards could provoke legal challenges. Under U.S. copyright law, removing a watermark without permission is generally illegal. As AI models gain more advanced image manipulation capabilities, pressure on tech companies to implement stricter guardrails will only increase.
