Not sure if anyone else noticed but reddit is now testing a beta of an answers feature that generates answers based on reddit posts. Maybe this explains the phenomena people noticed of deleting posts only to have their posts reappear? Just saying if reddit was already bad for privacy it just got worse in my opinion.
I wonder what’s different on lemmy though. At the end of the day, this platform is just another platform on the internet which almost anybody have access to. Sure AI use is not on the ToS. But anything open access is assumed to be privacy unfriendly anyway. If it’s the dm feature, it’s a different story.
The difference is I (the contributor of content) have the same access as anyone else to the data, and could use it for my own purposes if I wanted to.
On a platform like reddit, access to the raw data is controlled and cannot be format shifted / used in any way I wanted to.
DMs on Lemmy are not secure FYI
Like “not E2E”, or someone can guess the URL to your DM type of insedure?
Not sure, but the message that it is not secure is displayed on the website when you message anyone. I would presume that anyone who knew what they were doing and wanted to target you would be able to figure it out one way or another if they were determined enough.
Yeah. My point being in terms of AI use, there aren’t really differences between lemmy and Reddit since the data is public. I don’t even see the point why this topic is relevant to privacy.
