I fucked with the title a bit. What i linked to was actually a mastodon post linking to an actual thing. but in my defense, i found it because cory doctorow boosted it, so, in a way, i am providing the original source here.

please argue. please do not remove.

the assumption has to be they don't intend this

why? if someone publishes something on port 80, why should I ever assume they mean anything but for me to have and use that data?

Because there is a standard way for people to make their consent known. Just because you ignore someone withholding you consent doesn't mean you are free morally.

I'd say it is immoral not to share useful information with other people.
