@unixben @alanc Are you remembering the good ol' days of "XFree86"?

@luca @activitypubblueskybridge @fedidevs @fediversenews I'm not anti-corporate at all. I have no problem with a large entity implementing native activitypub and interacting natively with the community.

I do not see bridges/gateways that republish content as that at all.

Further, I understand there's a difference between offering someone a beer and having them walk into my house and help themselves to the fridge.

@luca @activitypubblueskybridge @fedidevs @fediversenews That would be using the content as intended. In the same way that allowing a browser to cache a web page doesn't entitle the browser use to then republish that content under their own domain.

Similarly, owning and using a DVR doesn't grant one the right to sell copies of a TV show.

I can borrow a book from a library, but that doesn't entitle me to photocopy it, rebind it and sell it to another library.

If you'd like to use our content, how about paying us for it?

Or at least consider the copyright position of each post/account rather than assuming what we produce is free for you to re-use.
