Your issue isn't with Brazil, STF, or anything, it's with Musk throwing someone who agreed to work with him in good faith under the bus.

Musk knew refusing to comply would mean legal liability for that person, and chose not to comply.

@eibhear @anarchic_teapot @gutocarvalho

If you are the Managing Director of Twitter GmbH (Germany), and your parent company Twitter, LLC, doesn't allow you to follow german laws, and fines are levied against Twitter GmbH and neither Twitter GmbH nor Twitter LLC can or will pay those fines, then yes, there can be action taken against the Managing Director.

That is, companies offer some liability protection in cases of bankruptcy and such, but not in refusal to follow the law.

@mattly oooffh I think I got a papercut 😂

@eibhear @gutocarvalho offices and companies don't shut down over night, you do know that, right?

@eibhear @gutocarvalho that is actually what is legally being signed up for when you are the director of a branch of a multinational company

You're not just a mouth piece, you have a responsibility to ensure the company abides by local laws.

@noellabo @django ah, not on mobile

@django @noellabo looks like Fedibird is currently violating the Mastodon license terms since Mastodon is AGPLv3, so forks *must* release their source code.

Something that should theoretically be possible is maintaining separate collections of actors to address content to, and software should be able to handle that.

e.g., followers is a collection intrinsically managed by the protocol: Accept(Follow) adds that actor to the collection for your followers. (All follows on the fediverse are really follow requests, no matter what)

Would of course require activitypub servers to be aware of these additional collections in order to handle delivery correctly, but this feels like something that should exist but doesn't in mainstream fedi software.

I think only @bonfire implements this maybe?

Like why can't I create a family collection or a close friends collection & share activities just with those actors through addressing?

I can also help remote servers by sending Add and Remove activities to indicate that I've updated those collections. (Maybe it'd be Accept(Add)? Or Undo(Accept(Add))? )

Looks like maybe @silverpill's mitra does use these custom collections for addressing?

Actually, looking closer at @bonfire, I don't think they do use custom collections of actors for addressing like this? I think they're actually maybe unfurling that collection into the addressing fields for the activity itself?

@Ashedryden they've crammed AI and other useless garbage into him and it's making him sick.

@mattly I received a prompt the other day that asked if their feed was a useful use of my time 😂

@mauve @distributed that might have unintended side-effects

@mauve like flooding peoples timelines with the backfilling of posts

@mauve I think there's a bug to the contrary

@mauve I don't have it off top of my head but follow from /app/lib/activitypub/activity/create.rb

@mauve yeah, I've heard of like, birdsite bridge that did similar backfilling clogging up people's timelines, but that might be specific to that implementation.

@cheeaun
1. yes, /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server advertises it, if that's a 404, assume no support.

2. yes, per the PKCE specification.

Documentation coming soon
