this could not be timed worse for Tumblr which is in huge hot water with its userbase already for its CEO breaking his sabbatical to ban a prominent trans user for allegedly threatening him (in a cartoonish manner), and then spending a week personally justifying it increasingly wildly across several platforms. the rumors had already been swirling that this would occur, but this just cements that they were correct
At least it’s not going to get sold here, or on Mastodon I guess, but it’s not like the data couldn’t get scraped by an unethical actor, right? 🤔
At least this way they’ll have to work to scrape it instead of getting it for “free”
That’s something I guess 😅👍
At least the fediverse admins are trying to stop AI and spammers, for those of you that don’t know Tumblr has a huge spam problem
