Well I imagine so, and it might be largely undetectable. As Fediverse grows it seems like a goldmine for training AIs, collecting marketing stats, etc, all without encumbrances of TOS agreements.<br/><br/>But sure, you’re asking what has actually happened, and what’s actually happened is that all of these users are making content available to companies. That part’s true.<br/><br/>And my personal focus is that it’s being done without the consent or knowledge of so many users here. 2024-06-16T14:34:47Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsdw56glt3fhdh8khjhew4e8selfskf5c3sdgzya47lfl82mw3e8dszyre6cn26jscws8zrw4y480x5mww7le5wyx9u7rd5gra2044hp7u5qhqyl07 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsf8x8wjwazqmhqj9xr2sxz5mfpj3mfnwuqsukzxus9q5yga4xvzaspxt7cv'>nevent1q…t7cv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It’s all in the ActivityPub protocol that I’ll link below. If you read it, it’s strikingly clear that there is no actual guarantee that your permissions will be honored. In fact, the standard uses the term “SHOULD” quite a lot when leaving servers free to ignore your privacy notation.<br/><br/>Are you familiar with the FRS radios? They had a feature called privacy codes, where a group of people would set the same code to communicate. BUT, really all of the comms were all on the same channel, but the codes simply filtered out what one wanted to hear.<br/><br/>So they provided no actual privacy, just the illusion of it.<br/><br/>Same thing here, unfortunately. The ActivityPub protocol is largely a broadcast protocol, sending content into the cloud with only suggestions as to who should see it.<br/><br/>You can believe that every link in the chain will behave and respect your wishes, but a scraper is free to ignore them and do what they want even if your post is marked private.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#outbox">https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#outbox</a><br/><br/><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Radio_Service">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Radio_Service</a> 2024-06-15T18:52:39Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsplcselgnajp8f0qln68auxd2z6lhy48s7lycd6dmc05uwrqqc4cczyre6cn26jscws8zrw4y480x5mww7le5wyx9u7rd5gra2044hp7u5qqefxgs In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxkjd6hz67ep8dkah4zgpx8hyp7jnkpuelq79rakvl8urx9k448pc3fdzux'>nevent1q…dzux</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>again, that’s not how this platform works.<br/><br/>Behind the scenes, it doesn’t matter if you make your posts followers only or not, the way this platform is engineered behind the scenes, the content goes to people who aren’t followers.<br/><br/>Maybe it will only be shown to followers. Or maybe not. You have no way to know. That’s just how this platform is programmed.<br/><br/>Again to be clear what I’m saying is, you need to be aware that if you make your posts followers only, they will still be subject to going to people who aren’t followers.<br/><br/>This is a design choice that the programmers made, that I disagree with, but you need to know that it is happening. 2024-06-15T18:35:14Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8lreycvahpwmkrgxyl2pqcf3u7fdc2tkptu9lzmszassps7mdh0qzyre6cn26jscws8zrw4y480x5mww7le5wyx9u7rd5gra2044hp7u5q3zcnnr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsr4z8087v3hp0k9chxwgwfxg7kcn93ahuyskqqtgu9u20e0638xjcxr9szk'>nevent1q…9szk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>but it’s not though!<br/><br/>Scrapers are very much able to scrape your content, and everybody needs to be aware of that as they post on here.<br/><br/>People are posting content here left and right and saying they love to do it because it’s safe from the big corporations or whatever, and I would be absolutely amazed if those exact businesses aren’t having a field day vacuuming it all up.<br/><br/>This is why it’s so important to me to spread the word about how insecure this platform is, for better or worse. There are trade-offs, and I’m comfortable with them, but there’s a lot of people who don’t know the risks they’re taking here. 2024-06-15T18:30:42Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8f4f3nx5nxat7yjewwuvdt7ed9q2pn987hkjmcgexwqp4rtpgqggzyre6cn26jscws8zrw4y480x5mww7le5wyx9u7rd5gra2044hp7u5qh04fwt In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs23qe59lr8f6es2d57jlx6nhczvgtmymvppqfez7a7wz6jnqhl59cs8x05z'>nevent1q…x05z</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>this is an ax I grind because people need to be aware:<br/><br/>**NO, there is no way to make your posts private so that there’s no way for anyone to see them without your permission.**<br/><br/>Anyone posting to Fediverse need to be aware that by virtue of how this thing is engineered, there is absolutely no guarantee of such privacy.<br/><br/>A lot of people are posting things they think are private when they’re not, and I find that hugely problematic. 2024-06-15T18:00:27Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgv8fcjczpnwq5m9qgr728j0k69je9r8smfsnqtlfj0q39rt60h5czyre6cn26jscws8zrw4y480x5mww7le5wyx9u7rd5gra2044hp7u5qfzfp2q In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0gkruflqn8pdz7qh3zae72khl46evck488v58d5qvjl9507a5h9qh9qw2d'>nevent1q…qw2d</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>just view it as a language that you might not be fluent in.<br/><br/>Don’t feel dumb, just feel like it’s another language that you get rusty from not using! 2024-05-13T19:30:31Z
