Zafer Dogan, a convicted sex offender, has been sentenced to over two years in prison for taking thousands of inappropriate photographs of children and manipulating them using AI technology. Despite the severity of his crimes, he was allowed to return to his home near a playground, causing distress among local families, some of whom felt compelled to move away for safety.
Met Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley criticized the justice system's decisions, emphasizing the need to prioritize the safety of children over the rights of offenders. He also called for greater responsibility from technology companies to prevent their tools from being misused for exploitation.
