The social media platform X, run by Elon Musk, has filed a federal lawsuit challenging a Minnesota law barring the use of deepfakes to influence an election.
X’s lawsuit claims the law’s “requirements are so vague and unintelligible that social media platforms cannot understand what the statute permits and what it prohibits.”
The issue with this argument is that social media platforms aren’t required to enforce it? https://www.sos.mn.gov/media/5626/deep-fake-overview.pdf
does anyone have the actual written law? it is hard to argue using summaries or even opinion pieces of musky boy.
IAs far as I read this correctly, the law prohibits creating such media but does not hold the websites accountable for publishing the media.
It does indeed sound vague as to what the social media site should do.
