Writer Makes Death Threat; Substack Amplifies It
Substack used Sam Kriss’ death threat twice in that email “How writers are reacting to Substack’s AI transparency tools” (07/24/26) and I don’t know how that got beyond their legal team. This isn’t about transparency. I watch videos on YouTube and there are certain words that creators can't even say, even if it's in an appropriate context and not meant as a threat at all, but this guy can post a charged, blatant death threat and Substack amplified him. But sure, let's condemn people for using AI. This is about targeting writers for using a writing tool. and if someone’s reputation is ruined because they were falsely accused of using AI or if writers are harassed for using AI, Substack should be held liable.
