@Hiker @hamiller_friendica @evan @feb unfortunately it seems like AP is losing lots of trust from its core original users all around with these things for the sake of getting mainstream attention.
I trust Evan.
I don't trust the companies that Evan is trusting with the SWF. Most don't.
I think that's where the issue lies here.
When you talk about sharing data, it's now always assumed it's for financial gain instead of simple research.
For me, it depends on what data is requested and if it's anonymized or not.
I feel okay sharing certain data, as long as its anonymized and nobody will be making a profit off of my data. Strictly research purposes.
