So there's this guy who made a tool where someone punches in their bluesky or mastodon credentials to his website, and it auto-crawls their feeds and produces an LLM summary of everyone it finds posting there. He was asked what people should do if we don't want to be mulched as content for his summary feeds. He said we should block him. I replied, I can do that, but that only stops *you* from running the tool on me, how do I prevent *your other users* from running your tool on me? He blocked me.
It is possible he interpreted the way I phrased my request as rude. I may have said something like "you are selling us as meat".
@mcc Well he shouldn't have made an invasive, consent obliterating tool with the slop shitting machine
@brad Okay so I tried to raise that point with him, and his refutation was (if I understood him correctly) along the lines that he *should* have made an invasive, consent obliterating tool with the slop shitting machine, and at that point the conversation hit an impasse
@mcc lol drop a username please
