A social network founded by a former OpenAI employee was caught importing public posts from Mastodon…and ran AI analysis to add tags to them.
The issue is not that they imported the content, that’s how federation works, but how they did. Fediverse is built on consent, opt-in/opt-out is the one of the key aspects that makes it opposite of corporate social media. Apparently, they are so incompetent that they imported DMs which are between 2 users and not in the public timeline.
