@lumi@niu.moe @koyu@koyu.space @izalia i think that saying “well we should respect the original intent or we are mean/rude” is a subtle and disingenuous method of attempting to control others that has no basis in a system of reasoning. publishing is a powerful tool. when we use it, we use the full spectrum of it. when we put information into others’ heads or computers we are no longer in a position to dictate what they think or derive or ponder or calculate as a result on their own.
@sneak @lumi @koyu @izalia It's called having respect for your fellow human beings. It's *generally* considered necessary to follow some rules in society beyond just what is physically possible. Going by just "I'll do whatever I can and no one can stop me" is just might makes right.
