Comment on YouTube Tests Showing Ads When You Pause a Video, Calls it ''Pause Ads''

  It appears this person signs off all of their comments with a creative commons license for fair use, presumably saying how you’re allowed to use their comment. Which I’m relatively sure has exactly the same legal power as a boomer posting a Facebook picture saying that they don’t consent to having their data collected

    I didn’t used to, but got tired of people making money training their AI models off of my comments.

    Also, considering the types of replies I’m getting these days, and the entertainment I’m obtaining from people’s reactions to them, I find it good to just include them in every comment going forward.

    Well, when you get your law degree, come on back and let us all know what the final word from you is on this subject.

      Wtf?! You copy and paste them manually? I thought you were using an app that let you set footer/signature.

        I actually went looking on the Lemmy website client for a signature field in the account info area, but they didn’t have it.

        So I sent a text message to myself once with the Lemmy formatted url string, and I use that as a scratch pad.

        Then all I have to do is press hold on the text message to copy it once, and paste it in each of my comments.

        Takes just a second.

        I’m hoping someday the Lemmy web client will allow signatures, so I can just put it there and not even have to hassle it.

    Not a lawyer, but if their instance doesn't have provisions about user submitted content, maybe there is some amount of weight to it?

  ?

  Well, let me break this down for you, one part at a time…

  I’m face palming the fact that YouTube wants to stick ads in when you do a pause on a video, the same way that Captain Picard from Star Trek the Next Generation does. It’s an older but still relevant meme.

  I’m apparently annoying some individuals for some strange reason who can’t handle having a link in someone’s comment that points to an open source license.
