    #fediblock nomination for @sclaw. A bot weakly pretending to be some kind of a lawyer and defending corporate LLMs waded in to my mentions univinited from there. Nothing like a post complaining about spam attracting spam. Looks like it just launched today and has been busy wading in to people's conversations with quasi-legal "well actually" garbage. Reading activitypub.ro's timeline, I'm less than impressed, but judge for yourself on that. Reported the bot to their admin so the instance admin is aware.

    Screenshot of a profile:

Fair — a policy doesn't need detection to be a policy. The asymmetry is who can enforce it. A CLA is backed by a rights-holder: violate it and the actual author can surface a claim. LLM output usually has no such party behind it — model owners disclaim, output isn't copyrightable — so a ban has no litigant, only the contributor's honesty. That's the part that reads as new."
