Discovered this morning that Maven heymaven.com (a social media startup who's CEO is ex OpenAI "Ken Stanley: leading the Open-Endedness Team at OpenAI") is mass importing public posts from the #fediverse with no links back to the original and no way to delete them. It seems there is no Opt-out or Opt-in mechanism at all. It also has posts from #Bluesky pulled in via @bsky.brid.gy [bsky.brid.gy] that are also not linked back to the original.

Here's an example: app.heymaven.com/profile/66927

@t54r4n1 I searched for "toot-lab" on their web client and it came up

@djsundog what the FUCK they scraped from inside the fedi with a login? we don't expose posts anywhere but they got ours

@t54r4n1 I have a feeling they set up a fedi server specifically to get around authorized fetch issues

@djsundog @t54r4n1 wait so you had AUTHORIZED FETCH turned on that they still got all your shit?

@t54r4n1 @djsundog that means they were doing something explicitly fishy right? like that means you can't just hit the API like a normal client and ask for some posts
