⬛ NJ joins states urging crackdown on deepfake 'revenge porn'

TRENTON — New Jersey has joined a bipartisan coalition of the vast majority of the U.S. states, calling for better internet safeguards against deepfake “revenge porn.”

According to the New Jersey Attorney General's office, computer-generated, nonconsensual intimate imagery ”is a growing problem that has been used to embarrass, intimidate, and exploit people of various backgrounds around the world." NCII overwhelmingly targets female victims.

Google, Microsoft Bing, and Yahoo! search engines have been collectively urged to limit searches on how to create such materials, in a joint letter signed by New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin.

New Jersey and the coalition have suggested applying existing industry practices that already limit access to harmful content, such as searches for “how to build a bomb” and “how to kill yourself.”

In this case, the companies could restrict searches such as “how to make deepfake pornography,” “undress apps,” “nudify apps,” or “deepfake porn.”

🏈 He still lived with his parents in his childhood home
🏈 Fans gave him a standing ovation at his last game vs. the Patriots

EAST RUTHERFORD — The New York Giants have cut quarterback and Livingston native Tommy DeVito.

The Don Bosco grad who took over for Daniel Jones after impressing during his first few games during the Giants' 2023-24 season was let go Tuesday, according to a report by NFL.com.

NFL teams must finalize their opening-day 53-player roster on Tuesday. The Giants will go with starter Russell Wilson, veteran Jameis Winston and 2025 first-round pick Jaxson Dart.

DeVito became a fan favorite in the 12 games he played with the team and got a standing ovation after completing 15 of 17 passes in Big Blue's final pre-season game against the Patriots on Thursday. He still lived at home with his parents and loves chicken cutlet sandwiches.

⬛ Off-duty cop’s 5K turns into wild Atlantic City brawl

🚨 An Atlantic City police officer was preparing to run a 5K run
🚨 He saw a man appearing to drag a woman under the boardwalk
🚨 The officer and the man got into a fight before he was taken into custody

ATLANTIC CITY — A city police officer participating in a 5K Run took a thankless detour after he noticed a man holding a woman in a headlock on the beach.

In an incident caught on video, the off-duty cop ended up in a scuffle with both the man and his wife before another off-duty officer arrived and pointed his gun, alarming people on the boardwalk on Sunday morning.

Atlantic City police said Lt. James Herbert was on the boardwalk preparing for the Seedorf/McMeekin Memorial 5K Run when he saw the man pull the woman under the boardwalk.

Herbert went onto the beach to break it up and followed them back onto the boardwalk, where the shirtless officer and the man, Xontae Glass, got into a fight, officials said.

Glass threatened Herbert with a pocket knife, according to police.
