If #
Trump indeed used #
Mastodon for his new lies and ignored the #
AGPL, then this is a noteworthy point on his terms of service:
Unless otherwise indicated, the Site is our proprietary property and all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics on the Site (collectively, the “Content”) and the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the “Marks”) are owned or controlled by us or licensed to us, and are protected by copyright and trademark laws and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws of the United States, foreign jurisdictions, and international conventions.
Regardless of that, these points are rather ironic:
As a user of the Site, you agree not to:
...
7. trick, defraud, or mislead us and other users
...
13. use any information obtained from the Site in order to harass, abuse, or harm another person.
...
23. disparage, tarnish, or otherwise harm, in our opinion, us and/or the Site.
Trump hates competition. And how about this one:
You hereby waive all moral rights to any such Submissions, and you hereby warrant that any such Submissions are original with you or that you have the right to submit such Submissions. You agree there shall be no recourse against us for any alleged or actual infringement or misappropriation of any proprietary right in your Submissions.
Moral rights... Trump doesn't do moral, and neither should his users. And how does this announcement...
I am excited to send out my first TRUTH on TRUTH Social very soon. TMTG was founded with a mission to give a voice to all.
go with this term:
We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to:
...
2. take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates the law or these Terms of Service, including without limitation, reporting such user to law enforcement authorities;
3. in our sole discretion and without limitation, refuse, restrict access to, limit the availability of, or disable (to the extent technologically feasible) your access or any of your contributions or any portion thereof;
A voice for all, unless you "disparage" Trump or if he doesn't like you otherwise.
I find the name "Truth" utterly ironic. That name is to truth what "Democratic People's Republic" is to North Korea.
