If you feed somebody's posts into your shitty LLM without an explicit and reversible opt-in, you are violating the consent of fedi users.

This "Zeitgeist" app not only violates consent, but it also doesn't have a centralized ActivityPub identity that can be blocked or defederated.

Wir blockieren die App von zeitgeist.blue. Das bedeutet, dass kein Account auf pnpde.social die App nutzen kann. Das bedeutet leider nicht, dass eure Postings nicht über andere Server von der App gelesen werden können.

Absichtlich kein Link. Es geht um eine Software, die die letzten 24 Stunden der Timeline eines Accounts in eine LLM liest, um daraus eine Zusammenfassung zu generieren.

Technisch simpel: Wir rejecten Requests mit entsprechendem redirect_uri-Parameter in nginx:

90% of my interactions with government and business entities go like this.

THEM: "You did not follow the rules. Please start the process over from the very beginning and -- "

ME: "No, fuck you. Your rules are stupid but I already followed them. Here is the proof."

THEM: "Oh. Okay. Here you go."

“Tedious bastards” aka people who actually care about things like privacy and human rights and maybe even want to create alternatives to your toxic brand of technology.

Have you tried fucking off again? Maybe it’ll stick this time.
