 #MastodonNews April 30, 2023 Tech media starting to take notice of the insane #Bluesky Terms of Service. Mashable: What to know before signing up for Bluesky - Signing up means signing over your content. >>> https://mashable.com/article/bluesky-twitter-terms-of-service "You know what they say in tech: move fast, break things, and claim ownership of your users' content!" 2 comments
 @mastodonmigration Kind of makes their whole gambit of having a "portable ID where your content moves with you" irrelevant if it's not actually "your" content. I'm betting the main purpose of "portable IDs' is for hooking them up to some payment scheme (the Holy Grail of Big Social Media is to integrate a payment layer that''s entirely in their control....aka, they're still your landlord). |

@mastodonmigration @DataDrivenMD I have no expertise in terms of service, but @cathygellis, who very much does have that expertise, disagrees with this Mashable articleβs interpretation in a bigly way:
