@noiob neglect is fun
re: Intellectual property theft, boost please
@oddtail Oh, it's even more disgusting: Uploaded art isn't deleted if you delete your account. So you *have* to go through and one-by-one opt out, or *delete everything before deleting your account,* or they'll still be able to use it.
Edit: Oh hey, the checkbox is only for third party use. There's apparently an opt-out form. More info over here: https://mastodon.art/@Slugdog/109326704181228544
Edit 2: <voice type=FuturamaProfessor>Good news, everyone!</voice> DA is rolling things back. Sorta. At least it's gone from "everyone opted in automatically" to "whoops shouldn't have done that you're opted out automatically", which is some kind of improvement I guess. https://www.deviantart.com/team/journal/UPDATE-All-Deviations-Are-Opted-Out-of-AI-Datasets-934500371
@noracodes i half expected that this was bespoke nora
@noracodes what interface are you using?
I suppose I should make a proper #introduction post!
My name is Ra'il I'Nasah Kiam, and I'm an artist & independent scholar who lives in Philly. My personal/creative/intellectual work has centered on Black history, Black expressive culture, Black radical politics (especially #afropessimism), and the U.S. South. I'm also a co-creator of the #YourSlipIsShowing ht on Twitter, which tracked disinformation campaigns on social media.
@eevee those feeties!
Trying that manual QRT thing, where I link to a post instead of boosting, so that I can provide context.
So! Dr. Sarah Taber is relaunching the 'Farm to Taber' podcast, which is brilliant, about agriculture history/industry/inequity/mythology, and one of the very few podcasts I've ever followed even without a transcript. Next one's gonna be about whaling! https://mastodon.online/@sarahtaber/109326297668711218
