This here is at the forefront of the entire reason for the massive backlash at tge Reddit API changes.
I created that content, I can decide what is done with it. If I dislike the direction reddit is going I should be able to remove said content and prevent reddit from generating income for it.
Reddit didn't pay me to provide the information I did, neither did you. Neither of you are entitled to it remaining there indefinitely.
I actually like OPs tool though, I don't have an issue with what it does, however I would if it stored that data on OPs servers and then trained an LLM on it or sold the information to an ad company.
Suffice to say I think LLMs are going to degrade the general internet due to people not wanting what they said in an LLM. I personally post for other humans to benefit, not for a corporation to train an LLM on and make a ton of income. I'm fine however with a platform using tasteful ads to fund it's own operations.
Insert random ideas about posts made online being equated to a public speech and where that falls in the copyright laws that currently exist for the future LLM that parses this stuff.
- xwdv 3y agoSorry to tell you, but once you post it on Reddit, the content is no longer yours. Not your content, not your choice.
- jpc0 3y agoI am still an individual in this world with rights no matter how much "the internet" feels that isn't true. Reference the current legislation being put in place around the world regarding privacy as proof that I am not in the minority here. Also it did work exactly like that since reddit allowed me to delete said content and and chose to stop posting or interacting with reddit. Could there be a copy my reddit history out there somewhere? Sure. Do I have an issue with that? Nope. Would I have an issue with that if that copy was held by reddit and they still trained LLMs or sold it to ad companies? Yes and I'm sure I also have legal standing on that backed by my government.
- redeeman 3y agoyou also had the right to read the reddit terms of service, granting them ability to do this with "your" information
- pdntspa 3y agoLegislation or not, it is very entitled to think that that which is cast to the public is something you have any control over. Any illusory power you might have is merely legal, which in the grand scheme of things doesn't amount to much. The entire notion of copyright is built on this false premise of control. But in the world of ideas or information, bits are copied freely and easily and there is nothing that can be done to stop it. Don't like it, don't post it
- DANmode 3y ago> and I'm sure I also have legal standing on that backed by my government. Oh honey.
- Tokumei-no-hito 3y agoFWIW you can "delete" the content from public view. however, reddit keeps the data internally and can sell the data. so if the intent is to block the public view that works but if it's to block reddit from using your content it does nothing.
- slikrick 3y agosorry to tell you, but you're wrong lmao
- pdntspa 3y ago"Possession is 9/10 of the law"
- justsomehnguy 3y agoThat applies to your nudes too.
