X: we are literally a fascist hate group to the fullest literal extent hell bent on taking over the world in the name of cruelty & evil

Furries still on X:

@Redfuchs most furries still on twitter usually are fash sympathizers, with exceptions

Logging everything that's bad about the site in one simple thread.

Example A)

"Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.

Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for."

New X Terms of Service rolling out

@Redfuchs Man, I don't want artists posting art I've commissioned from them on that site I don't want Elon to have a perpetual license to art of me.

@Rusty @Redfuchs honestly i wouldn’t give too much thought about a bluechecks misunderstanding of X ToS. half of the stuff comes up every time x changes tos (or twitter before, or pre-musk twitter)

the “ai training rights grab” was likely already something they could do with the old tos, the “perpetual content license” is nowhere to be found (it doesn’t have a specified end date, which is not the same thing™). forced jurisdiction moved with the hq to texas from california, anti-arbitration still exists, government disclosure is literally just a cya, arbitrary termination is something that twitter always allowed itself to do (and most service providers for that matter…), statute of limitation seems new, the anti jailbreak clause is also new if it exists at all (but likely an extension of being banned from hacking x systems)

comparing it with this document from 2017 btw: https://cdn.cms-twdigitalassets.com/content/dam/legal-twitter/asset-download-files/TheTwitterUserAgreement-1.pdf

the license is also found in the ToS of every (corporate) social media platform and means “if you upload an image, we are allowed to compress, and crop it, show it to your followers, and with the corresponding privacy settings also the general public”. it also turns into a social media cycle every time someone changes their ToS regardless of whether they changed it (they probably did not)

@charlotte @Redfuchs To be honest, whenever X provokes a firestorm I just like pouring gasoline on that fire without bothering to verify how accurate the criticism is because, like, fuck X. Fuck Musk. It's not worth my time to verify and even if I did I'd shit on the site alongside everyone else anyway.
