This is part of the anti-takeover design. Elon or Zuckerberg won't be able to buy Bsky and mess with who I'm following, for example.

Also important to remember that every single bot account on Twitter is a potential scraper, so even though they require an account to see some stuff there, it really doesn't matter.

Less of a flaw, more of a trade-off. It's part of the "a billionaire can't just come in and own all your stuff" infrastructure.
November 30, 2024 at 9:20 PM
and where did the "charging for them" thing come from??
November 29, 2024 at 1:44 AM
lmao okay but bnewbold literally said the same thing in that issue

"A future iteration of the protocol may support private content"

"We have ideas on how to achieve this"
November 29, 2024 at 1:40 AM
private content is one of the top asks of atproto, we have some ideas. leading designs involve each user having multiple private repos. they differ from your public repo as they are access-controlled and not signed/redistributable. but they are still key->value, addressable, and of course they sync!
November 29, 2024 at 1:28 AM
That person is making stuff up. It doesn't "break the protocol" they just need to figure out a secure way to do it on top of what they already have. They're working on it
November 28, 2024 at 11:51 PM
yeah they probably weren't thinking too hard while reading your words. the guy that's still arguing with me has his brain fully disengaged. makes sense he's into artificial neurons when his own must have stopped firing a long time ago.
November 28, 2024 at 3:44 AM
lmao hold on what

so in your mind, doing something that an atproto app does makes that thing an atproto app

fascinating. i don't think any further discussion is required.
November 28, 2024 at 3:30 AM
sure, i give a license for my stuff to be distributed over the atproto network and applications made with it.

none of that applies to a parquet file on hugging face
November 28, 2024 at 2:46 AM
you're going to have to show me where it says that
November 28, 2024 at 1:25 AM
Wow, I'm in that one. I'm famous.
November 28, 2024 at 12:55 AM
I wish you had started with that argument instead.
November 28, 2024 at 12:31 AM
Again. It literally doesn't matter what intentions they had for the future. They were distributing this data in full without modification.

I was using a well-known type of copyright license as an example of an author retaining their rights even if they choose not to generate revenue.
November 28, 2024 at 12:18 AM
Nahhh I know you can't be trying to argue that reproduction in full is somehow transformative fair use. An author retains their exclusive right to distribute whether they're generating revenue or not. See non-commercial software licenses for an example.

I'm talking about the particular case that caused all this. No research had been done, it was just a guy who had reuploaded one million Bluesky posts.
November 27, 2024 at 10:07 PM
Okay it's great that it's possible but in the particular case I'm talking about the guy didn't do it.
November 27, 2024 at 9:56 PM
you're cooking. i like it a lot.
November 27, 2024 at 8:42 AM
Even if it did meet that definition, there was no "method for deleting content a user has requested to be deleted" which is required by the guidelines. Guidelines not met, no rights granted for user content, thus copyright violation.

But I'm not a lawyer.
