| Jul 30, 2023 at 20:37 | comment | added | Chindraba | Since the API access for legitimate usages is covered, and the community users section merely says "Charcoal anti-spam network and similar projects" it might be helpful to give a better understanding of what is considered "legitimate." As one example, I'm given to understand that nearly all the user scripts, used by users, curators, mods, and even staff, rely on API access. Is it the intention to evaluate usages to decided it "this one" is legitimate, or more to presume API usage by users is "legitimate" access by definition? | |
| Jul 29, 2023 at 22:20 | comment | added | Andreas condemns Israel | I don't believe this commitment. It doesn't convince me that you're being honest. The answers show that you're not being honest. SE's communication in more private channels (Discord) has signaled you're not willing to commit to this for much long. The wording in this statement doesn't bind you to the commitment. I cannot in good conscience support this, or acknowledge it. This receives a downvote from me. I have no reason to trust what you write until I believe you're being honest. This does not provoke trust. It's too vague, not enough commitment, and not transparent enough. | |

| Jul 27, 2023 at 12:48 | comment | added | Zoe - Save the data dump | @vbnet3d See meta.stackexchange.com/a/390138/332043 - it's scummy, but likely not a violation of the license (obligatory I'm not a lawyer) | |
| Jul 27, 2023 at 12:28 | comment | added | vbnet3d | Is placing these "guardrails" consistent with the CC-BY-SA licensing of SO content? I'm no open source lawyer, but that strikes me as contrary to the licensing itself. | |
| Jul 27, 2023 at 11:58 | comment | added | francescalus | Will you "assure" that there'll be that access, or "ensure" it? | |
| Jul 27, 2023 at 10:59 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | After reading again and taking past actions into account. This is more like the preparation of a departure of free access than any kind of reassurance. I don't trust it much. | |
| Jul 27, 2023 at 10:55 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | "We retain the right to place guardrails around them..." I would advice to be very careful to not restrict any legitimate use by those "guardrails". I think it's hardly possible given the license of the content to meaningfully restrict data dumps to only some organizations but not everyone. I think now that I will need to keep my user name for longer. Also long-term and foreseeable future is not really very assuring. The September data dump will be the next test. | |

| Jul 27, 2023 at 9:21 | comment | added | HolyBlackCat | Is taking all content and reuploading it elsewhere to restart the community there considered a "legitimate usage", I wonder. (It should be.) | |
