This might be funnier than all those Facebook accounts with warnings about “I do not authorize anyone to use my photos!”
Because they’re trying to copyright an internet comment that they posted on a service hosted by someone else, with a creative commons license attached. It’s like a step up in knowing how shit works, but still not knowing enough.
If you really want ownership over what you say… don’t post it on the fucking internet.
I mean, not really. You own the stuff you create regardless of who’s hosting it. Microsoft doesn’t own the copyright for the millions of projects hosted on GitHub either.
And yet Microsoft made Copilot, and there are currently lots of clueless programmers out there using it to inject code with god knows what licenses into their company’s software.
Which hasn’t been free of legal challenges. Current copyright law doesn’t account for machine learning, which is what allows them to do this. This could soon change.
I use pigeons and let the wind tell me where to send them.

Are you trying to… copyright your comment? IPoAC existed prior to your comment.
I really need a link to a blurb about the CC thing, but not today. Basically think AI.

Fair enough

They’re not going to be absolved of copying code verbatim without following its license.
