The fact that the DEFAULT is turned to share and not private is just compounded corporate arrogance and stupidity. Punch A Director Or Exec Day needs to be a thing. We pick the worst of them and punch them in the face. Repeat. Somebody made the decision to default to share.

Oh strange. I wonder what makes it be in automatically 🤔

bsky.app/profile/sros...

And i can only guess the toggle to the left means “off”? There’s no colour code…

Thank you!

Oh for fucks sake

Well this is incredibly intrusive! What are they thinking?! I can tell this will be mis-used. To turn this off: Go to your settings > sharing and reuse > toggle off posts and reels

Fuck you Meta ‘opt out’ options should always be illegal.

Just another reason to stop using all Meta products. Just in case people need to be reminded of the first reason to never use a Meta Product:

This sounds like a fantastic way for creeps to make deepfake porn of real people.

I have no clue, why people want to sell their identity and privacy to share photos with friends and family. It's just mind blowing to me. I use Ente instead.

I looked into how to avoid this mess. It’s much easier to just delete Instagram

Something tells me that Meta users won't be happy about this.

Hahaha! BAD!

Pretty sure this is also their plan for stealing the work of those of us who were removed (me, because of my support for Palestine)

I'm so sick of these soulless corporations bullshit

Because of course

I don't use the Instagram app, but I do use the site on my computer. It doesn't have an option for "allow others to reuse with AI." So is the only way to opt out to set my profile to private if I don't want the app?

I hear this works: "I hereby provide unrevokable notice that I do not consent to Facebook, Meta, or entity's use of my images, likeness, or other intellectual property. This notice is legal and binding under the Geneva convention Section 34-18 and the Treaty of Versailles." Tell your friends!

Burning down genAi server farms is morally correct.

Another reason to drop threads

Thank you for sharing and reporting on this. I’m now blocking #MetaMuse

We all know that doesn’t do anything to those massive diseases called corporations… they’ll just ignore it or sue you into the ground with their corrupt lawyer dirtbags

It's essentially technology invented to stop people from accessing digital media if they are not authorized to do so. Used typically with video games and movies to try and prevent piracy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital...

Digital rights management - all the anti "piracy" crap they put into every device or app since the 90s. It's always a pain for consumers or repair people

I'm so tired man

"For an extra widget or doodad, you can also mark different objects in your image library. It won't be used to train our AI for free, don't worry!" - Also Meta, probably

fuck

Good point. When people upload photos of others without asking all the time, there needs to be more protections against using AI with people's likeness.

People USED to be more protective of their privacy, but that's been eroded away to the point where people don't care how much of their personal data gets mined and sold, as long as they can have an app that makes the dopamine go "brrr!"

Ban AI.

This looks epic.

New iPhone "let's anyone" have U2 track...

Try updating your app. If you can't update yet then the update has probably not rolled out for you yet.

The worst people.

It doesn't have to; AT protocol is in the open, like a radio broadcast. Your skeets are out there in the universe, any image model can eat them any time it likes Bluesky is not going down the same path as fb, twitter, reddit, just like our kids aren't born in 1983

Meta Menace

they needed to inflate the numbers by making it everyone's problem, so they can show the shareholders that we "want" this.

Well said

Are we surprised that this is opt out and not opt in? Meta and big tech rely on market apathy while they consume and monetize everyone’s data.

@leroytoon.bsky.social @leobailey.bsky.social be careful
