X are being sued by the Irish data regulator for breaching the GDPR in processing European citizens’ data for Grok AI without an initial opt-out.
The pause is a temporary measure until they return to the Irish High Court.
It finally feels like these data vampires are being tackled even if the pace is a crawl.
They can pause the rest of their service too, because no one needs to participate in this nazi echochamber
How magnanimous of them. Also I don’t believe them.
There’s no reason for them to keep defying the court. It could make the ruling worse for them and GDPR fines are hefty to begin with. They can’t possibly hope to gain anything of equivalent or greater value to the fine from a bit more data.
So they made some promises.
I know someone who is doing that quite regularly.
It’s going to really suck when they are told they can’t use the data they already trained it on. Lmao.
How can I make sure that with ActivityPub that my comments can’t be legally used to train AI? Does lemmy have some kind of terms of use?
They will do it regardless and just pretend they didn’t. GDPR would already protect you if you’re from the EU, but as you can see, they don’t really care about that.
I don’t think you can, some have a license notice at the end of each comment but I have major doubts that it would actually hold up in any actual court hearing
Ireland knows enough about colonization, imperialism, etc. to refuse the electronic version.
