    it can apply across all of them, for example that’s how copy-left works

      In other words, fair game.

        What? I’m saying every federated copy must legally must have the usage restrictions. Just cause it’s copied doesn’t mean it can go into a for-profit LLM.

          There is no licensing in the protocol so anything you put out there is free.

            If we serve licensed content over ssh or HTTPS it’s still licensed. Protocols don’t change the legal requirements of the data. Warner Bros will still sue if one of their movies is hosted on a server using the activity pub protocol.
