> At the bottom they say all the content is under a creative commons license and IANAL, but I'm pretty sure they don't get to reassign license like that. @drskrzyk Let's just say, it's not as easy as that. And it's a standard !gnusocial footer, so why go just to the !loadaverage's datacentre with legal threats specifically? https://fediverse.network/gnusocial – go big instead.
@drskrzyk I am sorry for replying in a passive-aggressive manner, but you are bringing the instance I have been using for 7 years to an end. It's hard for me to keep myself calm. And to go just a few days after @kaniini, quite a timing.
> At the bottom of their pages the assign all content to a CC-BY-3.0 creative commons license, which violates my rights to my content as well as anyone else who they are scraping. @drskrzyk Let me put it this way… Legally speaking, licences are a giant pain in the arse in federated networks. So you are saying that stating that all loadaverage.org materials are licensed under CC-BY-3.0 is illegal. Okay, then it's illegal that hackers.town omits that licence. And licence omission is an implicit "All Rights Reversed", so everything's illegal.
So yes, there is a problem. What's your solution? > an intellectual property / copyright violation by a client hosted on your network Chopping one's own foot off, right.
