Literally everyone could see this outcome of having a giant fire hose of all the network's data when looking at Bluesky's architecture. It's the other side of the double edged sword of helping with discoverability and global reach. It's why efforts to standup something similar on Mastodon/AP fediverse is always met with huge resistance. Ironically that leads to a lot of tut-tutting by usual suspects. Even shunning a firehose sidecar component on the AP side of the fediverse I'm sure a substantial percentage of public data is being scraped directly from our servers. That's still going to be substantially higher PITA for these data vampires and not as effective since a lot of servers substantially limit what can be publicly/anonymously seen. #bluesky #SurveilanceCapitalism #ai 404media.co/bluesky-posts-mach…
