A random awful.systems user posted the recent disinfo about the FAF using LLMs for moderation. I went in and tried to clarify the situation, and I admit I got kinda upset when they kept ignoring my statements in order to be snarky. Eventually I believed we reached an understanding but I was sadly mistaken which I should have imagine as awful.systems residents kept downvoting all my replies.

As I finished writing a post to explain our official instance policy, I noticed they just jumped to defederation anyway, the reason being...the same disinfo I just went through a lot of effort to debunk. They just called my debunking of the disinfo as "DARVO" which is just disgusting trivialization of harasser behaviour by @dgerard, but I digress.

Anyway I finished my post and once I posted it in our instance, I thought they would at least allow me simply to link to it to provide what we actually believe.

Lol, nope, instant delete and ban

Here's their charming admin casually admitting that even though we explicitly told them this is not what we're doing, they just going to disbelieve and make up their own headcanon.

Anyway, I shouldn't be surprised, dgerard has been known to spread disinfo, so this is just more of the same.

Rimu published yet another hit piece against the /0 instance and this time posted it in his own instance comms as well. One of his mods jumped in, admitted they don't know anything about anything, but nevertheless felt confident enough to state their opinion as fact and in the process insult all of us collectively, then stickied his opinion for good measure.

So I decided to reply sarcastically, at which point that mod insulted me and locked the thread, which is apparently a feature in piefed which simply hides/deletes further replies in that thread, but since it's not a feature in lemmy, it appears to function like a shadow delete.

This is what my last reply would have been.

(Yes I'm being snarky, but that "I'm so mature" bullshit just rubs me the wrong way.)

In my opinion, using mod powers to get the last insult in, is just bastard behaviour.

My comment was removed for "misinformation"

Apparently the mod likes using euphemisms for their extracting wealth from other productive members of society and really dislikes being reminded.

The video I linked for reference

I guess I was "sympathizing with invaders" because I said "Such an absolute waste of life, just for the vanity of one man."

Just patently ridiculous moderation...

I was watching a video yesterday which had a sponsor for deleteme which claims to go through data brokers to delete your info. I thought that might be a good idea, especially for those with radical politics. However it's fairly expensive (~200$) and also I mistrust sponsored links by default.

Have you used them? Have you used something else? What do you recommend people do to deal with the hundreds of data brokers which harvest your info? The point is not to disappear entirely, but pershaps to make it less easy for an employer, payment processor or whatever to blackllist you based on GenAI assessments etc.
