Facebook Is Being Overrun With Stolen, AI-Generated Images That People Think Are Real

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Eternal September
It's kinda strange, the Eternal September was before my time and now we have whole generations of even tech-affine people who never heard of usenet. Which btw just like email pre-dates the internet.
Email predates WWW, it's fuzzier to determine if email is older than packet routed internet because both standards evolved in parallel so you have to pick and choose what counts on each end. First use of @ or creation of SMTP? First network with 3+ organizations or creation of TCP?
I'd actually date it back to UUCP and BBSes exchanging batches of messages once a day or so. The days of routing by bang path.
