Good Idea: Remember Aaron Swartz

https://crln.acrl.org/index.php/crlnews/article/view/8637/9062


Swartz downloaded a large number of academic journal articles from JSTOR, a digital library.
Companies like OpenAI scrape data from the web to train machine learning models.

Swartz's intent was to promote free access to information, challenging the existing paywall model, while companies like OpenAI aim to create profitable AI technologies.

’What might happen if, in this conversation, we centered the voices of those whom it’s actually about? As a society, we struggle to listen to children when they tell us what they need. This problem extends beyond trans kids to queer kids of all stripes, to children who tell us about abuse in their homes, to even the archetypal son who wants to play music when his dad wants him to play football. We claim to prioritize children, but we actually prioritize the idea of them, an imagined ideal that allows them as little autonomy as possible.

“We don’t listen to children. We treat children as manifestly inferior to adults. We give them less rights,” says Gill-Peterson. “We make them economically and politically dependent on adults. We put them in dangerous and vulnerable situations all the time. They have no control or participation in authoring the world they live in, the schools they go to, the doctor’s offices they visit, the adults they’re left alone with. And then we say they’re incapable of knowing anything. Therefore, they have no ability to hold adults to account. That’s a very disturbing way to treat a group of people.”’

I think that they are completely in the right and I think that unless it's medically nessacary it should be considered genital mutilation, but this pic is still funny

Here is a good talk by an intersex person on childhood intersex gender assignment surgeries, which are almost never medically needed, and often very harmful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A1rO3eDVM8

Here is another good video on the subject, by someone who had IGM performed on them as an infant, before they could consent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yHAYOvTdMI Being born intersex is about as common as being born a redhead.

"We need society, the medical field, and intersex communities themselves to acknowledge that nature provides humanity with a wide range of forms, so that all of our bodies can be recognized as valid. Unless there is an actual rare functional problem, our bodies should not be altered in infancy, and only those functional problems should be addressed. Our genitals should be altered only if we ourselves request it, to make ourselves comfortable in our own skin, not to make society comfortable by our medical erasure. Society must come again to embrace the diversity that is nature's gift to us." - https://intersexroadshow.blogspot.com/2011/04/intersex-genitalia-illustrated-and.html

All children deserve to be protected from genital cutting without consent, no matter what genitals they are born with. Autonomy over your own body is a human right.
