Can you provide more context? Im very confused after skimming the first few paragraphs

It's a stupid comment practice where they claim ownership of their comment and place what they think is a binding and effective license against AI using that comment.

It literally does nothing. This is the modern equivalent of making a post on Facebook to assert that you have rights and control of your comments there.

Beyond the tools for editing and deletion you have no such rights in the Fediverse and it's a good way to demonstrate you don't understand how anything works.

Nothing stops anyone or any entity from indexing, ingesting, or scraping federated content.

They put that link in all their comments. It's got nothing to do with what they say.

Oh lol, thanks for clearing that up

It's simple: China is an ultra-capitalist nightmare county and anyone who disagrees is either a liar or a fool.

Except the Chinese government definitely manipulates prices and has mandates so not just usual privately owned capitalism.

[–] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Private businesses manipulate their own prices all the time.

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's their business and is a part of capitalism. Private ownership.

So China isn't capitalism because China isn't capitalism?

Y'know, it's funny. I was looking over my comment history just a second ago, and before I got your message the previous comment was sitting at 2 and now it's at 0. Right after you messaged me. When your arguments are dogshit in a community that's not particularly fond of China. It's almost like you're using multiple accounts to manipulate votes like a loser tankie.

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

You saying I have multiple accounts and I care enough to manipulate a deep level comment upvote count?

Anyway, ultra-capitalism is when the government is even LESS involved. So you are saying in China the government has virtually no involvement in the market? Oookeydokey.
