Comment on Discourse can now integrate with the Fediverse through ActivityPub Plugin
muntedcrocodile@lemmy.world 1 year agoWhat we need to do is have a copyleft licence for all federated content so anyone who uses it for any purpose (data minibg ai etc) must make it opensource and federated then they can come do whatever they like good luck profiting if u cant own the servuce or the content.

Say hello to Creative Commons. You can license stuff with an express interdiction for commercial use

Can i put this in my profile and say that all my comments posts etc are covered by it? And if someone where to use my data for ai training etc would i have grounds to enforce the terms of the licence? I would also like to be able to force anyone who uses my data for an ai etc to make it opensource, is this possible?

This is what I have done. Pixelfed has the option to assign a license to individual post, so it should not be that hard to implement the same for the rest of the fediverse.
I mainly choose the noncommercial license to stop big actors like Meta from displaying my content alongside their ads. They probably will not respect it, but if this becomes the standard on the social web, we might have some collective leverage down the road, i.e. for a class action lawsuit.

Good questions. I’m not a lawyer, so, I can’t answer them, but you could just start adding “CC BY-NC 4.0” at the end of all your comments.
