heard over on twitter 2 the state of Utah passed some transphobic legislation and put up a snitch form on their website for you to i guess report people you think are In The Wrong Bathroom or entities that are not fascist enough about the bathrooms. the people who have to sort through these reports are probably gonna be sooooooooooooo bored and it would be so nice of us to put some fun creative writing and pictures in there for them to enjoy. enrichment in their enclosure

P.S. i had trouble with the CAPTCHA stalling out on Firefox so you might have to open Chrome to do it

P.P.S. it seems like there's no character limit and the attachment filesize limit is yet-undiscovered at least in any discussion i've seen about this lmao

No, this is actually a really bad idea. The whole point of flooding their database is to make it more difficult for them to enact their transphobic legislation. Sending cutesy responses doesn't accomplish that; the people sifting through the responses can easily filter out anything containing Bee Movie quotes or the word "Shrek." The key to undermining these forms is to send in false but plausible information they can't reliably separate from actual information. Make them waste time following up on a response that goes nowhere.

Now, I would never encourage people to misuse software, but I would like to state that one of the few things that generative AI are legitimately good at is creating large quantities of "good enough" spam. Unrelated fun fact, many models can be prompted to intentionally include minor spelling and grammar mistakes, which can make the detection of AI-generated content more difficult.
