Holy shit. I can’t believe that 65 people upvoted this. Do you really believe that’s how the world works? Are you actually adults?
Comment on Microsoft doesn't understand the Fediverse
theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 1 month agoSo I guess I’ll explain the post for you, since it seems you do not understand the fediverse, either.
cyberplace.social federates with lea.pet but is not responsible for and cannot control the Microsoft parody account on lea.pet. Microsoft sent the notice to the wrong server. That’s why Microsoft does not understand the fediverse or how federation works, and why the post is funny instead of dumb. Now you can laugh too! You’re welcome!

Lol please explain how the world works

You have full control over a server on which you chose to run certain Software. But you feel you don’t have to comply with takedown requests because that’s just how the software works? That may work on indulgent parents but not in court. If you’re too technically inept to know how to comply, then you’re just not complying. End of story.

LOL you think a court will enforce this C&D for a parody account??? 🤣 are you an adult??

So it’s funny because the fediverse is so niche that no one designing automated copyright systems care about its odd and unique addressing system?

Yes, exactly! Now you get it!

An attempt at censorship failed because the censors didn’t understand the system they were trying to censor. I think that’s both funny and satisfying.

They didn’t care about this system. It just got caught up in their news sources.
This isn’t funny, it’s just a thing that happened.
