The Impact of Fake AI Nudes: A Scandal in Southern Spain
The article discusses a scandal in Almendralejo, Spain, where local teenagers received AI-generated nude images of themselves, created from their clothed Instagram photos using an app called Clothoff. The app, which allows users to 'undress' pictures with AI, was used by other teenagers to create and circulate these images. The article highlights the ease of creating such deepfakes and the distress caused to the victims. It also mentions a study by Sensity AI, which found that 96% of deepfake images are of non-consenting women, and a Europol report predicting that 90% of online content could be AI-generated within three years. Euronews Tech Talks plans to explore the scope of AI Deepfake technology, its risks, and educational strategies to combat its misuse in a series of episodes.
Catalonia, Andalusia and Cantabria, the communities most concerned about 'okupación'
A survey by Línea Directa Aseguradora reveals that 24% of Spaniards believe there is a medium to high chance of their homes being 'okupied,' with 77% viewing it as a social problem. The study highlights that Catalonia, Andalusia, and Cantabria are the most alarmed regions. The survey attributes the issue to slow justice, political permissiveness, and high housing costs. Mar Garre from Línea Directa explains that while 'okupación' is not a specific criminal offense, it can be prosecuted under usurpation or trespassing laws. The article also notes a significant increase in 'okupación' cases from 2018 to 2022, with a notable percentage of people in the Balearic Islands having direct or indirect experience with the issue. The preferred solutions among Spaniards include harsher penalties and faster evictions.

A baby market across La Raya
An investigation into surrogacy practices reveals a market for 'guarantee packages' offered by Feskov Human Reproduction Group, a company based in Ukraine, facilitating surrogacy services across borders, including Portugal, despite Portuguese law only allowing altruistic surrogacy. The investigation, posing as an infertile couple, uncovers the process and costs involved, ranging from €60,000 to €90,000. The surrogacy process begins in Ukraine, with the surrogate mother traveling to Portugal for childbirth, exploiting legal loopholes and avoiding direct legal breaches. Criticism from feminist groups highlights the exploitation of women and the ethical issues surrounding the commercialization of surrogacy, with calls for stricter regulations and enforcement to prevent human trafficking and exploitation.
