Also, this is my new signature line, so thanks.
You’re welcome. I appreciate you helping out with normalizing signature lines.
The point you felt was worth making a week later
Again, five days ago. Some people like myself stumble upon a post/comment days and days later from when its initially posted.
is that I am free to block someone who does something I find kind of annoying?
Yeah, for some reason people who complain about me using a license seem to keep forgetting that option, but instead just continue to complain, for some strange reason, no matter how many times I remind them of that option. Thought it was a good PSA to remind the complainers they they have alternatives to complaining.
That seems a little extreme to me.
If that seems extreme to you, then you need to touch grass more often.
Extreme would be continuing to complain about something that you have the power to change, but don’t change.
Why is the cc-by-nc-sa license disappointing? Is your disappointment exclusive to version 4.0?
My only disappontment is with those humans (and humans who use ““humans””) who side with AI model using corporations that steal other people’s content to train said models for profit, over regular everyday people.
What is that point?
at the very least it’s way less annoying to see it on a website than it is under every comment
You’re free to block those that use the license, if you find it annoying to see.
You’re free to reply to a week-old comment, too, but neither is a great idea
Actually, five days, not a week.
And also, sometimes its just about making a point, even if you stumble upon something later on. 🤷

what are you going to do? Sue?
Personally? I let Creative Commons know what’s going on, that their licenses are being ignored.
I’m pretty sure they’d have something to say about the matter.
Ah well then I might try and find a license that doesn’t require attribution because I don’t care about that part.
I would argue attribution is also really important, as it forces them to expose publicly how they’re training their models, bringing awareness.
Nice off-topic comment. Pretty sure by now everybody is aware of that (and other posts) on the topic of using a license.
n the meantime I’ve been changing my post sort from Active, to Top Posts in the Past 12 Hours.
If you set it to ‘New’ Lemmy becomes a whole new place.
for fun I ran this through GPT just to see what it’d say. Not that I would trust it to be correct ever, but it’s interesting getting an “outside opinion” about this.
I’m don’t believe an “outside opinion” from an AI company’s product, about if an AI company has the legal right to ignore a content’s license and scrape the content to program their models, would be unbiased, and should not be trusted, as you’ve stated.
Attempting to agree to disagree, and move on.
Who cares what lemmy.world said?
It’s where the content was initially posted, so any terms of service would be applicable to the content at the time of posting. That’s why.
The onus is on the Federated server receiving the content that’s already licensed to reject the content if they do not want to abide by the license. If they accept the content, they have to abide by the license.
And as far as the rest of you diatribe, I’ll just remind you that licenses can’t just be stripped from content because some third-party TOS says it can.
We would have seen much ‘money laundering’ style mayhem on the Internet with other people’s content before today, if that was possible.
I think we’ve discussed this enough, so I’m just going to leave it with an ‘agree to disagree’, and move on.
Have a nice day.
For many many years even low end Android phones can perfectly run emulated game systems that came out a decade or two after atari, so cpu probably isn’t a bottleneck at all
Yeah, I kind of agree, but I just threw it out there as a possibility, as maybe their code base is really bad and non-performant.
I hold to my argument. In the current Lemmy (and fediverse environment as a whole) I can put on my server that my placing data on my server, you forego all licenses, and I can do what I like.
You keep arguing the wrong point.
No one is saying you can’t on your server create a TOS that says that anyone who puts content on your server that you then own that content, you become the owner. That’s not what’s being discussed.
The point is because of various reasons like safe harbor and PR, Lemmy World and other servers in the Federation are not claiming ownership.
When you post your comment on the Lemmy World server, you still own it, and you can license that content that you own in any way that you like, and that license is on the content, not on the server, so as that content is federated, that license travels with it and is still in action, and must be abided by.
I think this is a new area that doesn’t have a clear definition yet, and since other sites can have clauses saying you give up ownership by using it, I think that could be argued here too.
I feel confident in my position, because if we went with your position then it would be very easy to “money launder” anyone’s content by just passing it through a third party Federated server with a TOS that says they own any content on their server. I’m pretty sure the big boys who own content aren’t going to allow that to happen, and would talk to their friends in Congress about it.
It’s really mostly existing basic content law. It’s not as cloudy and up in the air as everyone wants to say it is, there’s just a new wrinkle to it, and I’m pretty sure those in power will make sure everything stays status quo.
I can go and add that to my ToS right now, that anything you give me will be trained. I say in there that I will disregard any license on there, and by placing anything on my server you are relieving yourself of any license. Since it’s my server, I can say that. “If you don’t want your data trained on, don’t put it on my server.”
So you’re setting up a straw man by adding the TOS clause of ownership on the posting server to your example. I’m not saying that. The issue being discussed by me in response to your comment was if a license on content that is being federated stays with the content or is somehow magically stripped off when its federated.
As far as your TOS example goes, If Lemmy World added to their TOS that any content added to their site they own, then I wouldn’t post any content on Lemmy, as I want to keep ownership of my content.
But since Lemmy World does not do that (smartly so for safe harbor reasons), then the creator of the content is the owner of the content, and if they license that content it carries forward as the content is federated. Its up to the receiver of the federated content to reject the content, or abide by its licensing.
All fediverse apps start on your instance
You forgot about the web client.
You’re literally giving it to anyone who would listen.
The quantity of sharing does not dimish the licensing of the content.
So to me copyright is like saying “only people I approve of can look at this sign” and then posting that sign on every tree and post in town
I mean, ProPublica has explicit instructions on how to share their content with others, content that is licensed with a Creative Commons license, and that includes displaying the license number, when you share the content.
If someone includes it at the bottom of all their comments, but never launches legal action when someone violates that licence agreement, then it’s literally useless.
Well, its ‘poisoning the well’. What happens next depends.
For AI companies that actually honor licensing, or are fearful of getting caught at some point, they’ll honor/follow the license for the content.
And for those who do not, if they get caught with their hands in the cookie jar, Creative Commons (and other license creators) will have something to say about it. And they will get caught, we all know about black-box programming their models from the outside via our comments.
Finally, Congress right this second is considering new laws about this, so you never know. Companies in the future may be forced to have to explicitly state where the content comes from that they train their AI models on.

That’s what it comes down to, right there.
Google needs to spend money on people, and not just rely on the AI automation, because it’s obviously getting things wrong, its not judging context correctly.
