Even if you did get rid of copyright (which they don’t actually want, they just want a carve out for their LLMs) it wouldn’t matter for anything owned by major players. For example, there was a gap in US music IP law for like 40 years for anything from before the system was nationalized in the 70’s (IP rights were a state-level concern for music before that) but if you legally copied a Beatles album from the prior state system, the rightsholders would still sue you into oblivion by sheer force of lawyers and infinite money. In a system that allows the rich to use money to just grind you into dust with no recourse, what is actually legal is somewhat irrelevant, it’s how many dollars of capital are you pissing off.
Wow, that saying, “if you sit by the river long enough the corpse of your enemy will float by” is 100% true! Amazing!
Harvard (and all these elite institutions) stand on VAST piles of wealth for what exact purpose if not this?
This is from some manner of misguided SEO or native advertising or similar campaign… this is NOT going to help anyway, this shit is sooooo below scumbag threshold in a world where forum links don’t count…
No idea, I’ve had lemmy.world blocked for like a year
No idea about that claim, but Flyingsquid and all his flying mod monkeys have made him the Spez of Lemmy.world and I will have nothing to do with that shit instance or the shit people on it and will shit on them all any time I can. Fuck Flyingsquid up his flying neolib ass.
The comment thus far are a little oversimplified… Yes, the feed is just an XML document, same as the HTML page, but there are several relevant differences. Yes, in theory, one could use server logs to determine which IP addresses make which requests for what documents, but in practice… Making things run and spying on people tend to be two different departments. With HTML, unless you block all javascript and have no images load, tracking javascript and tracking pixels will be invoked by your browser and those DO go to the tracking you department. If you hit a webpage it is FAR more likely that data goes somewhere for you to be spied on than just downloading an RSS feed (although individual items in the RSS feed may well have tracking pixels).
Fuck lemmy.world. Fuck flyingsquid. 🖕

I wish the worst acts of violence and cancers upon every IP landlord.
