   I don't think I've *ever* seen an instance show up on the fediblock notifier as much as hf dot space. Holy christmas.

     @scathach AI bot spam, allegedly. I didn't bother checking it, instances I know to be sane were blocking it and that's good enough for me

     @prettygood It's just HuggingFace? That's the AI tools site.

     I'm confused cuz I don't know what it has to do with fediblocks.

     @Paradox HF has no place on fedi IMO

     @prettygood I mean, sure. I'm just saying I literally just typed it into my browser and it sent me to the site. Not even an instance page or anything, so I don't understand what it has to do with spam accounts.

     @Paradox someone used HF to spin up a fedi instance that was scraping, I guess. This is all heresay, I'll be honest, I didn't look into it, like I said earlier instances I know to be sane were blocking it and I went along with it.

     @prettygood @Paradox its funny how you can scrape the fediverse easily if you know how it works and how the people that run instances are/how the culture is, but these high profile cases make it seem like they don't know.

     @prettygood Ah, interesting. Funny how every 6-12 months someone does something with fedi that 95% of it is just vehemently opposed to.
     Reminds me of the Bad Space, which was like a colossal blocklist you could subscribe to.

     Also it's hearsay, like this is what I hear people say.
