Actually you're helping to classify their datasets for ML purposes, so in a sense you're tilling their farm for them (while also helping ensure the site you're on has less spam than it would otherwise).
- zpr 9y agoThen this sort of software makes it recursive.. it's teaching itself...
- sildur 9y agoI usually make small mistakes identifying things, intentionally.

- thisacctforreal 9y agoAnd it will now be, on average, a hair less right, or less confident, or maybe just less confident in sildur’s classifications. Either way I think being a bit adversarial towards this kind of stuff is a healthy, albeit small, protest.
