breakfastmtn@lemmy.cato Firefox@fedia.io•Mozilla Now Claims the Rights to Your Ideas and Feedback Posted Anywhere on the Web, as Long as You Use Firefox4·4 months agoThe services are Firefox but also optional services you can opt-in to (like account sync). It’s about giving feedback to them under the subheading “Your Feedback and Suggestions.” Generalizing from that to “all your ideas anywhere on the internet” is bananas. They also explicitly say in the previous clause that they don’t own that content:
It also includes a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license for the purpose of doing as you request with the content you input in Firefox. This does not give Mozilla any ownership in that content.

I’m not a lawyer, but my naive reading of the clause
Well there’s your problem.
Mozilla (in legalese): if you submit feedback, we don’t owe you money or authorship credit

breakfastmtn@lemmy.caOPto World News@lemmy.world•Zelensky ordered to leave White House without signing minerals deal after Oval Office clash with TrumpEnglish61·4 months agoYes, I would want a source saying that Ukraine chose to cancel the other events and leave the White House.
But it seems like you misinterpreted the article to mean they were ordered to leave on-camera. It happened well after the media availability.

breakfastmtn@lemmy.caOPto World News@lemmy.world•Ukrainians Blindsided by Deal’s Breakdown and by Trump’s ActionsEnglish217·4 months agoBitchin’ bonus quote:
“It will be hard, but we will survive,” said Iryna Tsilyk, 42, a poet and film director in the capital, Kyiv, whose husband serves in the army. “Today, I was not ashamed of my president and my country. I am not sure that the Americans can say the same.”
I suspect the whole thing was premeditated, so it wouldn’t have mattered. Does the VP normally interrupt the president when talking to other world leaders? Zelensky smiling and tacitly agreeing to Putin’s narrative was never going to happen. I also can’t imagine any European leader going to the White House and saying, “Yes, we’ve treated you very unfairly. The European Union was just a conspiracy to screw over America and we’re very sorry, Dear Leader…”
Wasn’t the Twitter “bridge” just bot accounts though? It’s a bit different with Bluesky because they’ve said that they completely support bridges between AT and AP but just don’t have the resources to work on them themselves. Anyway, ActivityPub co-author Evan Prodromou gave an interview yesterday where he included Bluesky as part of the Fediverse because of the bridge.
Personally, I consider them to be both part of and not part of the Fediverse, I guess. I wouldn’t send someone there and I also kind of think they’re a bunch of dicks for re-inventing the wheel instead of contributing improvements here.
