      People think it actually means something. Kinda like the “post this on Facebook to prevent Meta from using your post!” type things. It’s just feel good pointlessness that won’t effect anything meaningful.

          Kinda sorta…. SovCits attempt to incorrectly apply a bad interpretation of some laws in ways they think it will benefit them.

          This is more in line with what it’s actually supposed to do, but it just has less teeth than a newborn baby and there’s no way that they would ever be able to have any sort of recompense or enforcement so it’s functionally useless.

      Just go look at my posting history, go back about ten months or so, and you’ll get a full understanding what it’s all about. Focus on the comments that discuss Safe Harbor laws.

      If you’re just going to mock me about it, to try and dissuade me from using it in the future, don’t bother, it hasn’t worked in the past, and it won’t work now.

        A) I don’t care about your posting history or any other person’s. It’s not important.

        B) I wasn’t planning to mock you, but you’re definitely being a little defensive.

        C) Since you’re being so defensive, you actually think that it holds any water or would stand up to legal scrutiny given that you’re posting on a publicly accessible forum?

        This feels like the online equivalent to wearing an N95 face mask while on a hike away from civilization: pointless.

          Well the answers to your questions are in that posting history, so it is important, if you’re being intellectually honest about the questions that you’re asking, and not just astroturfing.

          I’m trying to NOT repeat myself now, and derail and sidetrack the conversation currently being had.

          B) I wasn’t planning to mock you, but you’re definitely being a little defensive.

          No, I’m not being defensive, at least not in the way you think I am. It’s just a matter of the repetitiveness, defending from the constant attacks about using it being very tiring, as well as derailing the actual conversations currently being had, and I’d rather avoid them.

          C) Since you’re being so defensive, you actually think that it holds any water or would stand up to legal scrutiny given that you’re posting on a publicly accessible forum?

          I stand by what I said, and I believe the laws on my side on this matter, especially when it comes in Safe Harbor laws, and how laws are greater than user agreements.

            Put a link in your license that goes to one of your comments that explains the whole license thing. Then you never have to have this conversation again.

            Ain’t no one going to trawl through 10 months of your comments to find it.

              I’m trying to not talk about it, and would like others to not talk about it either, but instead talk about other things, like the subject of the post my comment(s) are made in. So if they want answers to their questions, they’re going to have to read my previous comments, as I don’t want to repeat myself.

              Ain’t no one going to trawl through 10 months of your comments to find it.

              You wouldn’t have to read through all tenish months worth. Just go back that far and read one of the first comments/conversations that you see. There was one that was over something like seventy(?) comments in it, going into great detail, both pro and con, of how people (including myself) felt on the top.

                But they are talking about it because you don’t have a link that explains it and avoids the conversation.

                You know, someone’s going to read this comment three months from now, and then the instructions to go back ten months from now aren’t going to be appropriate anymore.

                Just add a link for crying out loud!

            you already got one link, you might as well add another one explaining it all so I can not click it as well
