Tumblr and Wordpress to Sell Users’ Data to Train AI Tools
(www.404media.co)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

At least it's not going to get sold here, or on Mastodon I guess, but it's not like the data couldn't get scraped by an unethical actor, right? 🤔
At least this way they'll have to work to scrape it instead of getting it for "free"
That's something I guess 😅👍
At least the fediverse admins are trying to stop AI and spammers, for those of you that don't know Tumblr has a huge spam problem
