Defederation of db0 instances for LLM moderation (awful.systems)

We are defederating awful.systems from:

because it's extremely anarchist to use the chatbot as your moderator (no no it's totally human in the loop) and post corporate DARVO-filled excuses when caught.

see also [1] and [2]

This is a last straw after a string of dubious and exhausting behaviour.

If you're an awful.systems user and you post to communities on those instances, you will need to create an account on one of them.

Good on you for pushing that point. Trying to pass off the logging details identifying their llm as ChatGPT as a "joke" was incredibly stupid, but more people might have bought that lie if you didn't press that followup question.
