Just because our data is accessible doesn’t mean it’s legally licensed to be used by a for profit company. Free doesn’t meant you can do what you want with it, it just means no cost.

I don’t disagree. I’m just saying that so long as you’re putting content on this platform, you are powerless to stop any service from using the features of the platform in whatever way they want.

It was built for easy and open consumption of user content by other services.

Oh yeah for sure. Anything I type here is for the whole world to see and I’m okay with that as long as it’s anonymous.
