    Well, obviously. It’s an open protocol. I assumed everyone on the Fediverse must be pro-AI training, otherwise why post here? That would be dumb.

      Uh… Are you saying simply using social media is endorsing stealing personal information to train LLMs? Because that’s a wild take, if so. Personally, I feel like there’s no stopping them, so what am I supposed to do, stay silent? Not engage with anything, even anonymously?

        Of course not. No “stealing” is happening. People are posting content on an open protocol that permits anyone to read it. Exactly as intended.

        Personally, I feel like there’s no stopping them, so what am I supposed to do, stay silent?

        If you do not want to be heard then yes, I suppose you could stay silent. That would indeed accomplish that.

        You could also find a social media platform whose content is locked behind a walled garden of some sort that makes it more difficult for your posts to be seen by the public. But that’s antithetical to how the Fediverse works, you want someplace very different from here if that’s how you want to approach this.

        Basically, you are on a platform that’s specifically designed to broadcast your comments far and wide without restriction, and then you’re getting upset that someone you didn’t want to hear your comments is hearing your comments. I’m not sure what you expected.

          Participating in a public forum that has no technical way of preventing data from being used by a particular class of actor does not preclude having an opinion that a particular class of actor should have rules about what data they are allowed to use.

            People can have whatever opinions they want to have. In this case that opinion flies in the face of obvious reality and I’m pointing that out.

            It’s like trying to drive your car across the Atlantic ocean and then griping about how the car failed to stay above the water because you really thought it should be able to handle that.

              It doesn’t matter how many pithy analogies you make. You need to recognize the difference between “I know they’re scraping this website because they can” and “I don’t think they should be allowed to scrape this website”. You’re arguing that they’re incompatible when they’re not.

      lmao what did you just say about Hexbear, lib? 💀 I’ll have you know I’m a tier-5 giga-brained poster with a PhD in Leninist praxis from the University of Posters, and I have 300+ confirmed dunks on Lemmy.ml sockpuppets. I was radicalized in the trenches of r/ChapoTrapHouse, forged in the fires of permabans, and tempered in the meme wars of 2019. You are literally nothing to me but another bootlicker running on 80% State Dept. talking points and 20% soy. I will ratio you so hard your precious little upvote count will never recover. You think you can just roll up in here, talk shit about Hexbear, and not get absolutely obliterated by dialectical praxis in 4K? Think again, bucko. As we speak, my cadre of Discord tankies are screen-capping your posts, cross-referencing them with your cringe comment history, and drafting a 12-point rebuttal with citations from Stalin, Mao, and that one screenshot of Bernie saying ‘chill with the anti-communism.’ The storm that’s coming for you is called material conditions, and guess what? They’re not in your favor. I’ve got Lenin’s collected works and a folder full of spicy memes, and I’m not afraid to deploy both. You’re already owned, kid. You just don’t know it yet. Now go touch grass, comrade, before I drop another 3k-word comment that makes you cry and log off.
