    It’s a stupid comment practice where they claim ownership of their comment and place what they think is a binding and effective license against AI using that comment.

    It literally does nothing. This is the modern equivalent of making a post on Facebook to assert that you have rights and control of your comments there.

    Beyond the tools for editing and deletion you have no such rights in the Fediverse and it’s a good way to demonstrate you don’t understand how anything works.

    Nothing stops anyone or any entity from indexing, ingesting, or scraping federated content.

        It’s true though honey. By using a service, you consent to that service’s eula. It’s legally childlike to accept an agreement, use a service, and then once inside that service, say “I’ve changed my mind. I’m going to continue to use the service but I don’t want to follow the rules anymore so I just won’t”

        It’s absolute peak cringe
