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.

    @reiver I'd consider interoperating social networks to be "federated", but I know it's not a precise term. There are similar ambiguities with other commonly used terms: decentralization, server, node, instance, and so on. We have our personal definitions but find that others have a different mental model than ours. It might be interesting to have a collaborative social web glossary that captures the variations of how these terms are used.

    ok yeah. we don't have the follower thing is I think the main thing. Which I could totally see being added. It should essentially be the same as subscribing to a community. The trust cafe thing is great though as it has a 0 to 100 sorta percent rating system so 100 is like subscribing/following and 0 would be like blocking and the numbers in between sorta give more nuance. I believe the way it works everything not rated is treated as 50.

    @bovaz @stefan @tsadilas indeed. And for WordPress, the fact that you can e.g. comment on a WP article from the rest of the Fediverse really drives the “shared social network” concept. And IIRC they are working on making the integration even tighter (esp. in the other direction).I'm not familiar enough with Ghost's integration to comment on that though.
