Attached: 1 image Apparently Microsoft don’t understand how the Fediverse works, and want me to delete the parody account @microsoft@lea.pet 🤣🫡

The admin of the Mastodon instance cyberspace.social just received an AI powered notice to delete the parody account @microsoft@lea.pet

    IANAL, but most law that I’ve heard of regarding third party content requires the site hosting the content to conform to takedown notices issued. So, having a good DCMA system requires you to be able to take down content from instances that may not be bad, but governed differently.

    As for the law “catching up with” federation sites, I don’t see that happening unless Mastodon and Lemmy start creating massive lobbying arms.

      Forgot that’s how America worked.

      In the UK, you could just keep making noise until a member of parliament gets interested and mentions it once

            OSA means the instances that are federated are required to remove it, but also because they failed to remove it and/or failed to regulate ages and the day of the week and feed the cat they are guilty

            Maybe you should make some noise until an MP cleans up the issue.

              I’m too lazy. My MP made a bluesky account but abandoned it. Sad!
