I hope people look at this and realize that licenses will not protect them; they will only ever protect capital in the long run https://aus.social/@KathyReid/112413898118066645

If you post to #StackExchange, you license that content to them under CC-BY-SA. You can't revoke that license, so you can't remove that content.
It shouldn't surprise you that they stop you from trying. Imagine a Wikipedia editor trying to remove their edits.
However, what it does give you is the right to host _all_ of SE elsewhere. To fork it, if SE violates its co…

I haven't used stackoverflow much, just had two answers I'd posted there. I deleted them both, and got the same email others have got.. Probably the most passive-aggressive email I've ever received.

Apparently you can’t easily delete your content from Stack Overflow so I have put a GDPR deletion request in.
All these AI fuckers can suck it. 🖕

Someone recently complained that #StackOverflow is “misusing” their answers for commercial purposes and now wishes to have all their content deleted under GDPR.
Here's the thing: Everything published there is #CreativeCommons-licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0. If you don't li…

Some interesting (but flawed) UX-design on the Fediverse sharing opt-in modal on threads.net.
If your screen is tall and the modal content has no overflow, you can’t move on. Had to shrink the window and give it a scroll for the button to enable. 😅
