There is a Mastodon instance that publishes content from its own PeerTube instance.

  • There is a Mastodon instance that publishes content from its own PeerTube instance. These contents are narrated aloud, likely by an AI, in several languages, and are based on articles that appear online. Today this happened with an article I shared from my blog.

    The problem is that there is no attribution to the original author and or the original source site. On the contrary, it gives the impression that the content was produced directly by whoever runs that site or instance.

    This is completely detached from the idea of properly sharing information. Taking inspiration is a wonderful thing. Claiming someone else’s work as your own is not.

    I contacted the account in question this morning. I have not received any reply, even though other content has been published in the meantime. A short while ago I also contacted the instance administrator.

    I will wait until tomorrow morning. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will publicly disclose the instance and the related content and block the entire domain. There are additional details that I prefer not to reveal at this time which further worsen the situation.

    This is not how we act in the Fediverse.

    In the Fediverse we respect one another.
    Let us avoid bringing improper practices here. You are free to use my posts as you wish. You can even make money by applying my advice.
    Just do not take away my attribution.

    @stefano I recall VWestlife got similarly hit with a bunch of YouTube channels a couple months ago that were mass uploading AI-generated summaries of his and other people's videos without permission (the videos themselves were just a static thumbnail image and title caption from the original video, with an AI voice reading out the AI-generated summary). He had to file copyright takedown requests to get them removed since there were no human owners to contact.

    @Quinn9282 I think it may be something similar...

    This was the NetBSD story, right? I saw the story too (using the same image as yours), and found it weird.

    @mjack yes, exactly.

    The major feature in v3.2.0 of Ktistec is thread analysis. The previous release, v3.1.2, added support for viewing threads from Lemmy communities. I follow the Open Source community, which leads to many large threads. The thread on FFMpeg and Google has 112 posts and is still growing.Thread analysis helps me navigate these extensive conversations. It includes: top contributors, a timeline histogram, and notable branches.The analysis applies several heuristics to identify interesting branches of the main thread. “Interesting” is subjective, but the algorithm currently looks for sudden bursts of activity and highlights those areas. Ktistec uses this to create a table of contents that links directly to those branches. Clicking on one of these links takes you to a branch-only view that focuses on the selected part of the thread.It's fast—I anticipated needing to cache analyses, but analyzing a thread with over 400 posts takes only about 50 milliseconds on my production server.Figure 1: Screenshot of the final design. Notable branches link to subsets of the thread.This release also addresses an object visibility regression that was introduced in a previous version.Full ChangelogAddedThread analysis that displays key participants, a timeline histogram, and notable branchesNew MCP tools: analyze_thread and get_threadFocal point rendering support for image attachmentsFixedRegression in object visibility affecting replies to threadsChangedEnhanced MCP tool details for likes, dislikes, and announcesImproved cookie security.#ktistec #fediverse #activitypub #crystallang

    Can you not call fetch() to do a HEAD call? Maybe I'm mistaken about it but it should be ok. CORS is indeed a wrench that gets thrown in when you least expect it...
