Wait, their comment was removed because they tried to copyright it? I’ve seen some bonkers things online in my day, but legally protecting your brain fart on Lemmy is a new one.
Hah, didn’t see that coming.
It does feel a little “sovereign citizen”-y, but I’m guessing based on the general sentiment around here that they want to discourage scraping Lemmy for LLM training data. It’s an… interesting… tactic though, as I would imagine most instances give themselves exclusive control over content licensing. I’m kind of curious how copyright would be applied in a federated network, though: would instances apply a license to incoming data, leaving other instances with the responsibility of defederating from them if they don’t agree with the license, or would the instance apply a license to outgoing data, forcing other instances to either comply or defederate?
