SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby Public data open to the web is *open to the web* and therefore entirely open to being collected in this way. In fact researchers often pull vast swaths of data from open-to-the-web systems for analysis. Additionally archiving the web is a virtuous activity IMO.Permalink On twitter.com

SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby Lots of sites do it and I wish they would do more of it. It's particularly important in a case like this where the system is going offline AND where the content may contain legal concerns as potential evidence.Permalink On twitter.com

SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby This is pretty standard behavior in academia, not weird or disturbing at all. We're talking about archiving and collecting data and the metadata attached to it and then making it available. This is the data that comes out of that process.On twitter.com

SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby There's nothing wrong with this, there's nothing weird about it. I think that if it concerns people they can choose not to participate or choose to undertake greater personal security. If there's any issue here it is the platform should have more automated privacy features.Permalink On twitter.com

SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby Like stripping data on upload etc... but other than that, I think this is normal behavior that should happen more often. Social networks create and store a lot of user data, see Chronotope/1270789059888254977Permalink On twitter.com

SexBBomba astro_clayton dellcam donk_enby If there is any problem here, it isn't the behavior of the archivist... it's the behavior of social networks that scoop up tons of user data. Which is a whole other issue.Permalink On twitter.com
