@luca @activitypubblueskybridge @fedidevs @fediversenews I'm not anti-corporate at all. I have no problem with a large entity implementing native activitypub and interacting natively with the community.

I do not see bridges/gateways that republish content as that at all.

Further, I understand there's a difference between offering someone a beer and having them walk into my house and help themselves to the fridge.

@PCOWandre @luca in your metaphor this isn't them coming into your house, this is you put a beer on a table labeled free beer for people to come and take. Most people are just taking them and drinking it themselves. You're upset because someone took it and gave it to their friend.

  @shiri @luca No, I'm upset because this is a private beer party and you gatecrashed and you're handing the beer to your shady friends in the back alley.
  I get your mindset. If you get touch it, it's yours. The mindset that sees nothing wrong with ripping people's writings and republishing them. Nothing wrong with helping yourself to any photograph you see on the internet and using it for whatever purpose you see fit. Scrubbing the author's names off and feeding them into your content farm.
  You are not invited to my party.
