    Bluesky is quickly becoming as bad or worse than other platforms. I knew that “no more Caesars” was bullshit.

      It’s amazing how people just can’t learn the lesson that the problem isn’t that a particular oligarch owns a public forum, but that public forums are privately owned in the first place.

          The discovery algorithm runs through Bluesky servers and is extremely resource intensive to self host.

          Why would you self host bluesky. When you have an actual federated open source platform like Lemmy or mastodon?

          They are infinitely better respect and grant you the four freedoms of libre software.

    Hard to find non-biased info about this, but it appears to be about doxxing? Public info is claimed, but that has to be investigated.

    Why did they do it? Was it something a little like the Scunthorpe problem (ex: they got suspended because it contained Nazi content but they didn’t realize the purpose was to expose Nazis)?

      If you look right now, the top comment is showing a list of names, ages, and locations.

      I’m guessing “researchers aren’t allowed to share publicly available information” means “we’re not allowed to dox people, how dare they”.

      I have no sympathy for nazis, but this is just creating outrage for the sake of it.
