@mewmew @dude during the gnu social years SPC's notice said "you own the copyright to your own posts, but due to the nature of federation you agree to grant an irrevocable license to distribute your posts to other GNU Social servers" or something like that. I need to add it back.

@thegibson @simsa03 @mewmew @mangeurdenuage @lnxw48a1 @lnxw37a2 @moonman @dude It wasn't made clear how to reach out, so I do get the issue here.
The way it happened for me is roughly as follows: he wrote to the datacentre about a "copyright violation", of course everyone took it very seriously and what I got on my plate is an ultimatum to resolve this no matter what, or else.
His request can be interpreted as a "remove me", so that's how the person who provides the virtual machine approached this. I removed it the moment I saw it however, as I think that even though it got scary for us, it can be, and therefore should be, resolved through communication.

@thegibson @lnxw37a2 @mewmew @mangeurdenuage @lnxw48a1 @simsa03 @moonman @dude Dr. Skrzyk did write that he's okay with how the licence in the footer is now, so it seems like this is over.
Except that I didn't change the footer and it looks just like it was before.
I did add extra links there to address him not being able to find contact information though, but this was after that.
Weird. But if it is all good, then it is all good.
