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.
@mcc I just blocked him immediately but someone else with more patience than I have may have convinced him to *at least* respect the #nobot profile convention but I ... am not convinced that he will actually do this.

@cthos @mcc

Yeah, this prompted me to add #nobot to my profile, which is something I wasn't aware of. It will be interesting to see if he honors that. I'm sure we will hear more about this.

I think I may start setting most of my posts to followers only and have them auto destruct because of garbage like this.
