Safety Stop for preventing Abusers, State Incrimination, and Termination of Employment from exploiting the Art to harm the Artists
We need one new Stop: a Safety Stop Proposed by Mae Milano
Suppose the Art is providing ammunition allowing
- abusive personal relations,
- ideologically extreme individuals,
- oppressive state authorities,
- and strict employers
from causing harm to the Artist by any of the means available to their power:
- emotional or physical abuse
- harassment
- state/police action
- loss of employment
While such abusers are reprehensible, and allowing someone else the threaten to silence your art through fear, threats, and abuse is not something that should be excusable - nonetheless it should be the Artist's choice whether to endure that harm or take that risk.
This will also prevent a form of abuse where a malicious Collaborator posts the art edited in a way that shames, humiliates, or incites others to harm another Collaborator. This gives the Collaborator the power to ask for a harmful display's removal when posted in good faith as well as bad.
As version 2.0.0 stands, such behavior currently still violates the Bill of Rights and is grounds for Ejection from the Collaboration.
As such we should have one more Stop clause that can be called by an Artist who faces a significant risk of harm for the Collaboration's Art. "One for all and all for one" means that the group must yeild their rights to display the Art in a context where it will cause harm to another Collaborator. We accept an individual Collaborator's expertise in what will cause them harm and will follow their requests to stop sharing in that circumstance.
