Föderation · Do 27.03.2025 20:27:36 @TheHCJ@floss.social @FediTips@social.growyourown.services I mean, fediverse is not privacy space? It's more like public square to hangout, but that's mine feeling |

Föderation EN Fr 28.03.2025 12:00:53 @sourcejedi @FediTips I doubt they would be using it for marketing as they don't plan on advertising in the future. Things can change though 🤷 |

Föderation EN Fr 28.03.2025 17:53:15 I didn't remember that. For privacy-trap purposes, I think it's fair to be cynical. It'd be great to see a non-ad funded model, but it's fairly novel (ignoring user donations). I was reading the privacy policy. They do allow themselves to use "personal information" for marketing. Though, it doesn't explicitly say they can share it for marketing purposes. AFAIK, "partners with whom we jointly offer products or services" is not an accepted euphemism for 3rd party ads. |

Föderation EN Sa 29.03.2025 13:10:27 Bluesky have said on multiple occasions they may introduce advertising in the future, and as a for-profit owned by VCs it's very likely they will do this.. This kind of redirect is perfect infrastructure for promotions etc. |
