Sure!
Here I am.
What's your problem honey?

.. I rest my case ..

#KI #AI

There are some false positives in that dataset, but I would still recommend it if you really want to err on the side of caution and don’t mind the false positives. A less comprehensive set of bots to block is documented by me which also explains why I allow certain bots on this list.

Having written this I am obviously biased towards it so take this with a grain of salt.

Scrapers I block (and allow), with explanations

Here’s my thought process when deciding whether to block a scraper from seirdy.one, the scrapers I block, the scrapers I allow, and the ways I block them.

^{Seirdy’s Home}

Thx for your link and efforts @Seirdy !

All this said, being part of a decentralized web, as pointed out in this toot, our publicly visible interaction lands on other instances and servers of the #fediVerse and can be scrapped there. I wonder if this situation actually might lead, or should lead, to a federation of servers that share the same #robotsTxt "ideals".

As @Matthias pointed out in his short investigation of the AI matter, this has (in my eyes) already unimagined levels of criminal and without any doubt unethical behavior, not to mention the range of options rouge actors have at hand.

It's evident why for example the elongated immediately closed down access to X's public tweets and I guess other companies did the same for the same reasons. Obviously the very first reason was to protect their advantage about the hoarded data sets to train their #AI in the first place. Yet, considering the latest behavior of the new owner of #twitter, nothing less than at least the creation of #AI driven lists of "political" enemies, and not only from all the collected data on his platform, is to be expected. A international political nightmare of epical proportions. Enough material for dystopian books and articles for people like @Cory Doctorow, @Mike Masnick ✅, @Eva Wolfangel, @Taylor Lorenz, @Jeff Jarvis, @Elena Matera, @Gustavo Antúnez 🇺🇾🇦🇷, to mention a few of the #journalim community, more than one #podcast episode by @Tim Pritlove and @linuzifer, or some lifetime legal cases for @Max Schrems are at hand.

What we are facing now is the fact that we need to protect our and our users #data and #privacy because of the advanced capabilities of #LLM. We basically are forced to consider to change to private/restricted posts and close down our servers as not only the legal jurisdictions are way to scattered over the different countries and ICANN details, but legislation and comprehension by the legislators is simply none existent, as @Anke Domscheit-Berg could probably agree too.

Like to say, it looks like we need to go dark, a fact that will drive us even more into disappearing as people will have less chance to see what we are all about, advancing further the advantages off the already established players in the social web space.
Just like Prof. Dr. Peter Kruse stated in his take about The network is challenging us min 2:42 more than 14 years ago on YT:
"With semantic understanding we'll have the real big brother. Someone is getting the best out of it and the rest will suffer."

#meanWhile ..

.. the #mastodon community wastes it's time trying to pimp up the stars of it's #APP in #googlePlay, the #robotsTxt of it's instances disallows exactly one #AI bot scrapper to not search for all public data available about the #fediVerse. Not only on it's mother ship but on all instances, so the elonGated can create his target lists of "the enemy inside".

.. good job, well done! ..
