    But here, the API is open and I can run my own copy and train my own LLM same as anyone else. It’s not one asshole who decides to whom and for how much he’ll sell the content we all gave him for free, so he can justify his $193 million paycheck.

      Does that really matter? The owner of a given instance can still choose to sell everything on their server, no?

    We have to either make AI illegal or make it accountable by giving references to where it gets its data so it can properly cite its sources.

  They’re not multiple though, edit it and then delete it and it’s gone. They disabled all the tools to do it though so it’s manually or nothing now.

    Damn. You outsmarted them well paid data jockeys. And assuming your edits change the actual comment and don’t simply hide the original.

    I could be an idiot too though. Reddit might have been running this whole shit show on the original version of the database system and be upselling to buyers.

    They just reload a previous cached comment, doesn’t matter how many times you edit or delete, it’s all logged and backed up.

  Will be interesting to see if they stoop so low as to allow this. Probably wouldn’t be a super wise move as most deleted posts are likely material that would not be great to train on anyway. My first thought when I read this was, “well, not on MY posts” I’m clean off of reddit.

    There have already been reports of people being banned and finding their posts restored in response to their attempts to delete them.

    There are torrents of complete Reddit comment archives available for any random person who wants them, I'm sure Reddit themselves has a comprehensive edit history of everything.
