I mean, you're fooling yourself if you don't believe Lemmy has been scrapped by a thousand crawlers by now.
I'm more paranoid about how many accounts are bots than about some data aggregator getting my dumbshit hot takes as training data.
Equal access for all is still better than one company controlling access to my content for the purposes of monetization.
That's why we're here. To fu k with the scrapers and poison the training 🙃
