Or an AI that’s pulling over cheap and old cars because the owners are more likely to get ticketed due to living in over-policed neighbourhoods.

How long before we find out it always flags certain makes and models as criminals?

Rename the Post Tweet textbox to the X Box

Let me know when you know.

It’s legal to end a license at your own arbitrary discretion if that’s under the license terms (it is)

Ya I wasn’t really making an argument.

It’s entirely legal, yes. As people have been saying for years, you don’t own the games, you own a license to them.

If we find instances infested with bots and unwilling to deal with them, we defederate them. It at least makes it more difficult to mass-infest the network with bots if we have basic things like captcha, email verification, and applications implemented in all the major instances. cough

This fediverse at least. AT Protocol, used for bluesky, supports nomadic identity. Instead of accounts being @user@domain.tld, they attach your domain / home instance / whatever, to a DID. You can read more about it in their various spec pages but here’s the one for DIDs.

US Courts have already ruled in the past that human authorship is required for copyright. It’d be a logical conclusion as such that human authorship would also be required to justify a fair use defence. You providing a summary without any quotations would likely justify fair use - which is still copyright infringement, but a mere defence of said infringement. A machine or algorithm that cannot perform the act of creative authorship would thus not be exempted by the fair use defence.

If it’s an ad: 40%

If it’s a SW: -15%

It’d not just break the philosophy, but the practical use of the fediverse. People use Mastodon, Peertube, and Lemmy privately amongst a friend group, or even on a LAN; maybe a small company uses Lemmy internally. Then they make it federated later, when they want more users, more content, whatever.

Like what opinions?

In the latter case, I think it might be feasible to prevent upvotes from being counted multiple times if the username is identical on different instances, since upvotes are public. Is there already a mechanism to do this?

If @dude@lemmy.world upvotes and @dude@lemmy.ml downvotes, how do we decide which is the canonical vote? How can we say for sure they’re even run by the same user?

Also, isn’t it much more common in the Fediverse than on central platforms for the same user to have multiple accounts with different usernames?

This was the norm on Reddit too.

I suppose this would only be possible if the different instances would log IP addresses and share this information with other instances. That doesn’t seem desirable to me at all, and probably wouldn’t be legal, at least in Europe, because of the GDPR. Are there other possibilities? Cookies?

Let’s not inundate the fediverse with tracking cookies and privacy invasion.

I get where you’re coming from, but I just think that the solutions to these problems aren’t actually solutions, and they’re a case where the cure is worse than the ailment.
