Umm, do people really read and respond to this type of spam? Because I cannot imagine ever allowing "market-magnet" or its clients to post their spammy articles on any Federati site or instance. I cannot imagine that I or anyone else would seriously consider it.
I mean, come on. If you're doing this, you should already have set up SEO-enhanced sites ready for your clients to use.
@amic Ah, that's good! One of the reasons #Daddy_A has permanent problems with his back is because Medi-Cal (California's version of MedicAid) refused to help for over a year. Not because their income wasn't low enough, but because he's an adult male. (His wife and son already had Medi-Cal at the time). The county refused to do emergency care because ACA required him to get Medi-Cal.
I'm still angry about the way ACA and Medi-Cal interacted.
@mangeurdenuage It isn't you. A user of hackers.town filed a copyright complaint after discovering that their public posts are copied to a remote profile on LoadAverage. This is a known feature of federation, and users have remote profiles on every GS, Mastodon, or Pleroma instance where someone receives their posts.
The user now says the issue is the appearance that their account is hosted at LA (it is clearly marked where each post came from) and that posts are under LA's copyright license instead the unstated license that HT uses.
This person could come after EVERY INSTANCE THAT FEDERATES WITH hackers.town, because their software and instance do not say what license their users' posts carry. GS will probably modify its (c) statement to clarify that the license applies to posts by each instance's local members, not to remote posts, but the question to think of NOW is whether HT will show up with DMCA letters at other instances' hosting.
