to take control of your own content while preventing it from being harvested for ai training, there’s a straightforward method.
- use a browser extension to encrypt comments sent to any social media platform. - by sharing your public key with intended recipients via a third-party channel, the platform only sees gibberish.
this makes ai training impossible, keeps corporations in the dark about your conversations, and ensures that any government surveillance only yields encrypted strings.
however, the platform might ban you as a bot, since this effectively prevents both the company and the government from snooping on your data.
This makes it non social media, the reason I post on social media is to ALLOW the world to view what I speak about. I don't mind if my data is harvested or trained off of.
Posting with encrypted data makes no sense as you are disrupting the social network with worthless garbage for 99.999% instead it would just be better to have an RSS type feed that your consumers (friends) can subscribe to and it shows the comment you made and the link to what you commented on.
Or if you just want to say something about it to 1 friend just send it to them.
You could still have pub/priv keys and an autodecrypt system though or use traditional authentication for allowing content pulls.
