Lemmy

You know what, red states?

Go for it. See what happens. I want you to do it. I want you to see what happens. I want your citizens to experience what happens.

I want the citizens who didn’t vote for you to fucking leave (spoiler alert: that’s gonna be a disproportionate amount of the more intelligent side of your citizenry).

I want the citizens who did vote for you to be alarmed and shocked and dismayed and say things like “who could have dreamed this would happen?”, because, as law enforcement loves to say: ignorance is not a defense.

Fuck around; find out. I hope the leopards enjoy your faces. Fucking imbeciles.

They’ll just blame everything on the dems and immigrants
You know that license doesn’t do anything, right?
Doesn’t stop me from using it
Then what’s the point? It doesn’t stop scrapers
it would if proven give them rights to seek damages.

No it wouldn’t have.

Licensing isn’t 1 sided. You have to have both parties AGREE to the license.

In this case it’s just text on each message.

The reason OpenAI was able to scrape the internet largely consequence free is because they never agreed to the ToS of the websites, thus they are not bound by those terms.

I agree that it isn’t right or morally correct, but legally it’s okay.

Additionally, by signing up to Lemmy, they grant certain rights and privileges to their instance and others due to agreeing to the license.

In fact, lemmy could make it easier for scrapers, as lemmy will happily deliver content to your instance, simplifying scraping.

There doesn’t need to be a point for everything (in my opinion)
