   I wrote about the WordPress/Jetpack/Tumblr/Automattic “A.I.” feed and Firehose debacle and how I’ve tried to opt out as best as I think I can https://gregpak.net/2024/03/03/the-wordpress-jetpack-tumblr-automattic-a-i-feed-and-firehose-debacle-and-how-ive-tried-to-opt-out-as-best-as-i-think-i-can-at-this-point/

     BIG UPDATE: Brandon Kraft at Automattic very helpfully responded to me on Mastodon and said the company has NOT already sold Wordpress posts to "A.I." companies for model training via Jetpack/Firehose! A relief. But the company's still planning to sell Wordpress.com & Tumblr posts, so opting out seems smart to me! I've updated the original post to reflect this new info: https://gregpak.net/2024/03/03/the-wordpress-jetpack-tumblr-automattic-a-i-feed-and-firehose-debacle-and-how-ive-tried-to-opt-out-as-best-as-i-think-i-can-at-this-point/
