      It won’t matter, they would have all of your comments archived already. Even if you overwrite them AI will be scraping the copies they keep.

        it creates a lot of poisoned data especially if you like edit half your posts with nonsense

          That’s trivial to filter if you just look at how much time has passed between posting and editing. Reddit comments are only very rarely updated after more than a day.

        Still some narrow scope communities holding some people back (but it changes slowly).

        Also, variety of porn is still better there (but lemmynsfw.com for the win)

    If we can’t delete our questions and answers, can we poison the well by uploading masses of shitty questions and answers? If they like AI we could have it help us generate them.

      You are literally the same mentality as the coal rollers

      Tech that could improve life for everyone and instead of using it to make open source software or coding solutions to problems you attack it like a crab in a bucket simply because you fear change.

      Poison the well by using AI-generated comments and answers. There isn’t currently a way to reliably determine if content is human or AI-generated, and training AI on AI is the equivalent of inbreeding.

    Good to know that stackoverflow will not be a trustable place to find solutuons anymore.

    To vandolise your own work and to hopefully not get banned, make/edit your posts to include an ‘AI’ response, make it appear as being helpful and have the ‘AI’ say its catchphrases while its clearly malphunctioning. (creativity knob too high/low, poisoned like tay AI, invisable   (nbsp) marks in the middle of words or other unicode corruption like G̸͖̓l̸̠̓i̶̛͓t̸̞̑c̴̯͝h̷̝̾ ̷̨͒ṱ̴̃e̷̤̾x̸̟͊t̷̫͝, obvious programming flaws that makes code not compile, etc)

    Pretend the AI’s answer was useful and wink to the humans that its not.

    Also, I dont discredit @FJW@discuss.tchncs.de’s answer.

    … Frankly, the solution here isn’t vandalism, it’s setting up a competing side and copying the content over. …

    His is less childish. His is the way to move forward. Mine is looking back and ventimg steam.

    … Anything else is just playing around and hoping that a company acts against its own interests, which has rarely ever worked before. …

    Frankly, the solution here isn’t vandalism, it’s setting up a competing side and copying the content over. The license of stackoverflow makes that explicitly legal. Anything else is just playing around and hoping that a company acts against its own interests, which has rarely ever worked before.

    If i was stack overflow I would’ve transferred my backups to OpenAI weeks before the announcement for this very reason.

    This is also assuming the LLMs weren’t already fed with scraped SO data years ago.

    It’s a small act of rebellion but SO already has your data and they’ll do whatever they want with it, including mine.

    Angry users claim they are enabled to delete their own content from the site through the “right to forget,” a common name for a legal right most effectively codified into law through the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Among other things, the act protects the ability of the consumer to delete their own data from a website, and to have data about them removed upon request. However, Stack Overflow’s Terms of Service contains a clause carving out Stack Overflow’s irrevocable ownership of all content subscribers provide to the site

    It reality irritates me when ToS simply state they will do against the law.
