Hey, if you, like me, are a US citizen who's had your books/stories/articles stolen by Meta to train AI, you can submit your name to the class action suit using this easy contact form for one of the law firms involved:

Seven of the #RPG books I worked on were pirated by #Meta to train their #AI #Bullshit

Regardless as to my feelings on copyright, the IP owner did not consent to their inclusion in the dataset.

Meta's use is fundamentally immoral to the point that my own works will have an exclusion to their existing permissive licences to say "Fuck you and your idiot autocorrect"

See if they've pirated your work here: theatlantic.com/technology/arc

#StreisandEffect Alert: Former Meta employee barred from promoting explosive memoir after META obtains a temporary injunction barring the author from promoting the memoir or bad-mouthing the tech giant. Furthermore, she was ordered to "talk-nice" while the case proceeds.

Promotion must be done by anti-Meta advocates

#StreisandEffect en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisan

The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information.

The term was coined by Mike Masnick after Barbra Streisand attempted in 2003 to suppress the publication of a photograph showing her clifftop residence in Malibu, taken to document coastal erosion in California, inadvertently drawing far greater attention to the previously obscure photograph. The effect exemplifies psychological reactance, in which the attempt to hide information instead makes it more interesting to seek out and propagate

My name is confusing. I don't mean that people constantly misspell it, but that no-one seems what I'm called. Let me explain.

British parents have this weird habit of giving their children long formal names which are routinely shortened to a diminutive version. Alfred becomes Alf, Barbara becomes Babs, Christopher becomes Chris - all the way down to the Ts where Terence becomes …

Pożar we wsi Kanie. Podobno paliły się jakieś chemikalia niedaleko stajni dla koni. Straż pożarna już interwieniowała.

Informacja o tym rozeszła się na zamkniętej platformie amerykańskiej korporacji meta. Korporacja nie podlega żadnej (sic!) kontroli ze strony polskiego rządu, powiatu i samorządu, a kontrola Unii Europejskiej jest cokolwiek kulawa ze względu na niesymetryczne relacje. Rodzi się pytanie co w przypadku tak ważnych (albo ważniejszych) informacji stanie się kiedy platforma #meta #facebook #messenger przestanie działać, albo wyłączy swój serwis dla danego obszaru z jej wiadomego powodu (bo może i nie musi sie tłumaczyć).

Czy nie bezpieczniej inwestować w otwarte, jawne, niekomercyjne, interoperacyjne kanały wymiany informacji takie jak #Fediwersum, #BIP, #RSS hostowane u siebie lub u operatora nad którym samorząd, powiat, rząd ma kontrolę. Pytanie to pozostawiamy otwarte i zachęcamy do dyskusji.
