Comment on Bridgy Fed, a bridge between the Fediverse and other protocols such as BlueSky, is using an opt-out model and that raises a lot of discussion

  I’d argue that using such loaded terminology to imply incorrect things is the real moral violation here

    The reality is that a bunch of the content creators are here rather than on a centralised billionaire/VC backed platform. Surely if those content creators wanted their content on BlueSky they would post there. I know for example that I personally declined invitations, so why would I want my toots and Lemmy posts there?

      You signed up for federation when you joined lemmy and mastodon. Your posts federating to other servers should not be a surprise.

        To ActivityPub services. BlueSky doesn’t support the protocol

      I’m not a fan of Bluesky, but to call it “centralized billionaire backed platform” makes no sense anymore. They are opening for federation already, and Jack Dorsey is now just shilling Bitcoin on Nostr.

  I’m posting on a protocol whose purpose is to post content to other platforms that use the same protocol.

    Your posts are awfully public, given that goal. I mean, anybody can freely access them and use programs to copy them for any use they desire.

      Isn’t this the same logic used to justify using our posts to train large language models?

        No. There is a difference in context and intent.

        Bottom line is, if people are concerned of having their conversation and content distributed out of their intended audiences, we’ll all have to move to a fully encrypted network, where every message can only be decoded by the intended recipients. Getting upset because other people are not agreeing to your expectations of privacy is pointless.

        And also by the bots we use to copy reddit content here, I presume? 😛

        What's wrong with the logic used to justify using public data to train large language models?
