   I'm going to put this here now so I can say "I told you so" later, but from seeing Bluesky's privacy policy stuff today it totes only exists as a freeze peach dataset to train AI and have the harvested data sold off to whoever wants it when it eventually tanks and the social media mask falls off of it. I think this also somewhat explains the completely bizarre labels feature so buyers can filter stuff out that's too hot for them easily. That's where they're planning on making their money.

     This project is still a surveillance capitalist project, because that's all its developers know how to build, and the environment their careers were nurtured within. This will be revealed once it's grown "too big to fail", but realistically (hopefully, anyway), it's already dead in the water. What a hot mess
