Trump's Social Media Platform Legal Issues
- galaxyLogic 5y agoYou can't make this up: "you can post “Truths” (aka tweets), “Re-Truths” (retweets), and there’s also a “Truth Feed” (Twitter feed). I mean what kind of people buy this? Just because you say something doesn't mean it is "truth". When you say something and then add "this is true" that doesn't really add much to your statement -- except it implies you don't usually speak the truth.
- literallyaduck 5y ago"The GNU Affero General Public License is a modified version of the ordinary GNU GPL version 3. It has one added requirement: if you run a modified program on a server and let other users communicate with it there, your server must also allow them to download the source code corresponding to the modified version running there. The purpose of the GNU Affero GPL is to prevent a problem that affects developers of free programs that are often used on servers." If they used an AGPL 3 they are required to publish all code, it is copy left, the best license I am aware of. The site was pretty much instantly hacked, and I would like to know: 1. Will the FBI pursue this as vigorously as the fappening? 2. Was it bad configuration of mastodon or custom code introduced from the dev team? I hope the AGPL license is properly enforced because I use it almost exclusively. It seems to be hubris to name a platform Truth.
