My thoughts

 

This will help with a lot of poor beauty standards but also at the same time someone is going to complain about privacy or marketing.

Privacy? no.
They're streaming, that's like letting go of the privacy of their mug shot already.

I think I should get one of those Truename cards and make up and endless name and then tell them that they're discriminating against me because my name doesn't fit on the card. Then sue them and get a credit card the size of a stop sign.

Man, now I want one.
Ima use either lewd name or %@^#!#$!#!(^(

Although, in terms of privacy of one's own real name, it's probably good.

Just don't take away my shower vocal patches I use on my POD rack unit to karaoke alone. Gets pretty hilarious, I must say.

What you do in your own personal showering time is your business!

Sounds like a law thought up by people that have no idea how image editing works.

 

What counts as a "beauty filter"? Stray hairs missing from getting cut out of a mask? Color grading a subject to match a background? Blur effects? Perspective correction that may result in someone appearing slimmer? The list goes on...

 

More importantly, who tf is going to police this? Is there going to be an army of 50,000 Photoshop experts on the government's payroll examining every new piece of media under a microscope?

A bit of background: It applies to advertisers and influencers with a following of more than 10k people. Same model as the French have implemented.
