yes, daylight has been saved again, but at what cost?
at what point are we going to decide daylight needs to learn to fend for itself and give up on costly interventions?

As a former expert on infectious diseases and large language models, and a newly-minted expert on bond risk management, let me explain what happened at SVB and why it aligns with my politics

Within the next 18 months we’re going to see an explosion of invasive #tracking and #datascraping as major advertisers and #dataanalytics companies realize just how fucked Twitter is and start looking for new hunting grounds(profit sources, us and our “content”).

We, as #MastoAdmin and #mastoMods MUST have tools to easily lock out, allow list, and control who can have access to our users that are expecting us to protect their peace and privacy. We’re going to see #spam ads from pop up domains in larger numbers, we’re going to see garbage coming into our DMs like it used to on Twitter.

The reason these things weren’t a larger issue on Twitter (until recently) was because of the infrastructure that went into managing and subduing that sort of behavior. The fediverse has none of that infrastructure, or really even tools.

If you do #MastoDev, please, we need tools. Perfect is the enemy of done. We mastoadmin need ways to share reports about problematic users and servers quickly and with notes and standardized categories. We need ways to identify and share with our peers and friends the things we are seeing and actions we are taking, and we need room for nuance and flexibility and options in our response to unknown unknowns.

It’s a big ask, but there’s decades of these kinds of tools being built for email and other distributed systems, we don’t have to start from nothing!
