#Automattic (#WordPress) was one of the few technology companies that I had a favorable view of, but no longer.

Opt-out is bad enough, but it looks like they may have delivered the first batch of content before telling users they were even planning to sell their content. This is the kind of user-hostile action I've come to expect from Google and Microsoft.

I'm hoping to spread the use of the #NoUseByLLMs tag as a way for users to pre-emptively opting out of being used for AI training data.

Updated my profile text. Added the following paragraph:
