Hey guys, uh I need y'all to do me a favor-
Go to each of your blogs' settings and turn the highlighted settings on- it'll opt you out of being shared to third parties, including being trained for AI. Unless you want to be used for AI idk up to you. Sorry not sorry for the ping btw.

Apparently, if you opt out right now, chances are high that tumblr won't sell your info, but if you decide to do so later, you have to trust big AI companies to honour your request, there isn't a guarantee or regulation for it in place

This is a PSA to bring awareness that Tumblr will begin sharing user data with AI partners to aid in training artificial intelligence. This is Tumblr selling your data for profit. Not a new tactic on social media but it is now enabled by default.
If you wish to opt out on mobile click the gear icon in the upper right, scroll down to VISIBILITY and enable the slider to prevent third party sharing. If you do not see that slider try updating your app.
People here should have a choice how their content is handled and not just have it freely sold without notice.

Teaching about the Holocaust should be a non-negotiable thing in the public education system, not just because it’s important to learn history for history’s sake, but also because students need to learn from the past, which hopefully will ensure the horrible parts of it never happen again.
While Holocaust history is indeed taught in the Fairfax County Public School (FCPS) system, Cooper Middle School has given parents of students the option to opt them out of attending a presentation to be made by a Holocaust survivor on Monday, March 18th on grounds that “We understand that all students have different experiences.”
Adele Scalia, a former attorney who is the wife of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s son, Christopher, posted on Twitter Thursday about an email she received from their son’s school regarding the upcoming presentation:
Fairfax County Public School System Provides ‘Opt-Out’ Option for Students on Holocaust Presentation
“A Holocaust survivor is coming to speak to my son’s 7th grade History class on Monday. Wonderful. What’s less than wonderful, though, is the opt-out for this lesson because ‘We understand that all students have different experiences.'”

Teaching about the Holocaust should be a non-negotiable thing in the public education system, not just because it’s important to learn history for history’s sake, but also because students need to learn from the past, which hopefully will ensure the horrible parts of it never happen again.
While Holocaust history is indeed taught in the Fairfax County Public School (FCPS) system, Cooper Middle School has given parents of students the option to opt them out of attending a presentation to be made by a Holocaust survivor on Monday, March 18th on grounds that “We understand that all students have different experiences.”
Adele Scalia, a former attorney who is the wife of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s son, Christopher, posted on Twitter Thursday about an email she received from their son’s school regarding the upcoming presentation:
Incredibly, when contacted for comment, a spokesperson for the FCPS issued the following statement claiming it was actually done so Jewish students who might have felt uncomfortable sitting through the presentation didn’t have to:
“Some Jewish students have previously expressed discomfort while engaging in dialogue around this visit. For that reason, school leadership makes every effort to partner with families of these students, who are 12 and 13 years old, to keep them informed,” the statement read. “This opt-out allows the family the opportunity to make the best informed decision on behalf of their student.”
That is, however, hard to believe considering not only Fairfax County’s notorious woke history but also because it has become a “hotbed of Muslim extremism” according to The Daily Wire:
Fairfax County contains a hotbed of Muslim extremism. A mosque there, attended by several 9/11 hijackers as well as the Fort Hood terrorist, was presided over by the father of Abrar Omeish, who until this year was a member of the Fairfax County school board. Omeish voted against an FCPS resolution offering a moment of silence for victims of 9/11 and another for victims of October’s Hamas attacks on Israel, said the decisive World War II victor at Iwo Jima was “unfortunate,” and gave a graduation speech encouraging students to “remember your jihad” and reject capitalism.
Jennifer Katz, a founding member of United Against Anti-Semitism and a Jewish parent of two FCPS students, told The Daily Wire that hearing from a Holocaust survivor is supposed to be emotionally difficult, and is part of gaining a full understanding of the tragedy.

Bad news: Tumblr will be partnering with OpenAI and Midjourney
(You may have to 'subscribe' to read the whole article, but it's free, and I highly recommend that you do read the whole thing)
Decent-ish news: supposedly, we'll be able to opt out (if there is an option, I recommend double checking that it's still selected every once in a while
Bad news: Tumblr 'accidentally' gave all sorts of data to OpenAI/Midjourney that it shouldn't have 😑
FFS, tech bros, just leave us alone

According to an online report, Automattic/Tumblr plans to sell people's blog posts to AI companies.
OPT OUT!
Be sure to OPT OUT.
OPT OUT
Say hell no. No backstabbing your fellow creatives. Opt out.
The Opt out should start on Wednesday, tomorrow. February 28, 2024.
Also, while you're at it, complain to the FTC.
The FTC has a twitter account.
They've even scraped data they weren't supposed to like dead blogs.

hey california mutuals! tumblr is trying to get cute with AdChoices regardless of your opt-out status.
this is not legal. since automattic’s headquarters are in san francisco and they acknowledge this in their own faq, you’d think they’d know that 🤔 hmmmmmmmm
remember to take screenshots if you see an AdChoices advertisement yourself! xoxoxo
