It’s problematic when people conflate their gut feelings for facts.

I understand activitypub better than creator of Lemmy

Well, that convinced me. Thanks for your insight on the matter, I now know how to value the rest of your comments.

And in one of those cases they are violating a very clear “this is not okay” signal, and in the other they are not.

What I think or what they “may” do is irrelevant regarding public data. What matters is sending a clear signal what you are and are not okay with.

Whether you actively participate in helping them get your data or not might not effectively matter in them acquiring it, but it may heavily impact the fine they get for it afterwards. You might be okay with them getting your data for free, but I’m not, sweet summer child.

They can still train ML models (create profit) from the data they get from you without consent.

I thought it was push after subscription.

Public is not the same as public domain.

I’m not a lawyer, but Federation would probably imply consent to sharing the data. Whereas defederation would strongly imply you’re not okay with sharing the data with that entity.

So… Instances like lemmy.world, that this is posted to?

yes, I’m federated with them as well, but shit like this is why I dislike them being so big. In the end all the smaller instances can either have strong morals and integrity, or have access to the largest amount of content in the fediverse, but not both.

Lemmy allows it on a user level, since version 0.19

But since I see you’re on mbin, that don’t do you much good, I’m afraid.

I see.

As the other commenter also said: can’t you just block the LW instance on your account?

What’s the usecase for cloudflare filtering / blocking LW?

I’m aware that the latter is a huge risk in what is supposed to be a decentralised solution, but I’m not sure why you’d need to filter hundreds of communities for that (rather than defed 1 server).

Also, its not clear reddit is able to retain deleted posts. They have a vast live site to maintain - why would they ever have been focused on having an immutable back up of all deleted posts?

They do, though. Last year when there was a small exodus to Lemmy, lots of people deleted their history. Which reddit then recovered.

The truth is, marking a comment or post as deleted, literally only takes one bit to store. deleted=1 or 0. However, if you go back and overwrite all your comments (not with an identical message, because that is easy to detect) - that would take more effort to recover.

Oh. Ok.

Why?

Is he banning them for disagreeing, or for people calling him a pedo over an autistic semantics discussion?

Mind you, I agree that when you hold controversial opinions about certain topics people are likely to discuss, you shouldn’t be a mod. Then again, if you value your sanity and blood pressure, you shouldn’t want to be a mod anyway - it’s a thankless job.

Huh? The screenshot says they think generated pictures are not abusive. Not the it’s not csam.

That’s a very dangerous way of twisting someone’s words, especially on a subject this emotionally charged.

Edit: adding to add that contrary to the title here, they are not talking about Editing pictures to be nudes, but generating them. Don’t get me wrong, I have no interest in seeing either, and the day they’re paying themselves is not doing them any favours. But someone is clearly out for character assassination here.

Nevermind, it was about altering the photos of a 15 year old girl into nudes. And while it technically/physically may not be child abuse, for the victim it might as well be. That’s indefensible - I’m out.

For me it just gives an error post0 failed to load.

Edit: that’s probably my lemmy client trying to approach this blog as though it were a lemmy instance 🤦‍♂️

It’s unused, you can go ahead and kill it.

Truly the brightest timeline.

With these kind of titles, I hope you will, and know you won’t.
