@feb what's wrong with it? Do you think too many people would give consent to let researchers use their data, or too few? Why?

@feb you saw that I'm at a Trust and Safety Research Conference today, where academic researchers talked about processes for getting consent from subjects to share data, right?
Home - Trust and Safety Research Conference
The Stanford Internet Observatory will host its third annual Trust & Safety Research Conference on September 26-27, 2024 at Stanford University. The conference brings together trust and safety researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, civil society, and government. The conference aims to advance research in trust and safety while fostering the exchange of ideas across […]

@evan This data is earmarked for a specific purpose that does not provide for any other use. Not even for research purposes.
Every node in Fediverse would immediately violate the GDPR. -
@feb @evan
Exactly !
It is **our** data and nobody has the right to do anything with it. Otherwise every admin would have to ask their users for permission.
No, such projects **definitely** do not belong in the #Fediverse. -

@evan Make it a binding standard. Make sure that all projects implement it. Ensure that no further data flows from users who have not consented to this. Ensure that these ‘companies’ comply with all GDPR requirements and follow ethical principles.
Do they really think that's realistic?
It's nothing more than a back door that creates further desires. -
@evan
Sorry, seems like a rhetorical question to me.
In such a distributed, decentralized network with so many servers, where the data is so interconnected, how can you guarantee the individual user that their data will not be used? After all, their data is not only stored on their home server, but distributed across the entire network.
But you can try to convince me on the technical and data protection side. @feb -

@feb The question is about academic researchers doing scientific studies, either in computer science, or in social sciences.

@evan
You didn't tell me what the researchers want to research. I assume that if they want to do research in social media, it's about communication.
So it's about interaction between users. How does research work now if one user has consented but the other has not?
Again, the open, free and decentralized network #Fediverse is not open to such gimmicks. The #Fediverse is not a commercial network where users pay with their data. @feb -
