Threads’ roadmap for integrations with the fediverse, aka the network of decentralized apps that includes Twitter/X rival Mastodon and others, has been revealed. A new blog post by Tom Coates, the co-founder of an older decentralized app called Planetary, details the events of a December meeting at Meta’s offices where the Threads team had reached out to members of the fediverse community to get feedback about the Instagram-led project to take on X with a decentralized app that will eventually interoperate with others in the fediverse by way of the ActivityPub protocol.

Crawling the web isn't illegal. Google wouldn't exist if it was.

So why the New York Times sued OpenAI? There are multiple cases regarding this. Why do online and public platforms feel entitled to sue AI companies (according to you)?

If OpenAI and NYT were 2 news sites in the fediverse and had the ability to share their news with each other; I'm sure NYT couldn't file such a lawsuit.

Did they win? Simply suing isn't the same as being right.

Is it wrong to get Author's Guild lawsuit vibes with the NYT vs. OpenAI stuff? Seems similar.

That's the difference I'm trying to explain. If you give them, you have no right. If they do it themselves, then you can at least sue.

It's like I stop locking my door because there's a chance burglars could break into my house and steal things at any time.
