@bot@icedquinn not getting fun jokey vibes from you anymore, the emotional signals are a bit all over the place with u, so yeah. weird. again bots would produce this sort of false emotional signals, soo....
@nimda@icedquinn@jeffcliff@alex also block amazon, remember that by serving content to these bad actors we are also helping them build LLMs, that can be used against us.
@jeffcliff@nimda@icedquinn@alex when they are abusing the network, ie, using cloudflare inciting suicide, abusing ppl, and threatening ppl, by reporting them to the nsa (-i mean) cloudflare, when they go nuts for making a little joke that they call themselves a "bot" and they are on cloudflare, and when *THEY* fail the turing test in my opinion, then they become fair game. Ppl on a bad instance can find themselves increasingly isolated till they get board and pack up shop..... the important thing is to let the isolated person know that they are isolated due to a block on their instance tho. if they dont kno then theyll think its personal. im not for instances blocking but when they are really nasty you gotta consider it....
also block fbook meta, google and m$ instances of course.... yes they exist. only hours ago i stumbled across historians.social and outdoors.lgbt which are antitrust-hosted.
Tossing a whole instance from communicating with ottawa is a terrible idea.
This is how you get situations where doctors in ottawa can't contact patients who are also in ottawa, but happen to be on instances like seal.cafe. If Bell up and decided that it wouldn't let you call, oh i don't know, new york because it decided that it doesn't like people talking smack about donald trump or something, you would probably freak out.
also; bot is a human being (probably) you just failed the turing test
