Re: <nettime> Seeking alternatives: Artistic portfolio infrastructure against AI scraping and platform enclosure


I facilitate a pixelfed server for professional artists in the Netherlands echobeach.nl . At the moment people are duplicating their instagram profiles, but the sever is growing and getting feeds from other servers. My next step is to figure out how to add a AI defense on the server, to work when people upload their files to the server.

I would love a way to scrape Instagram profiles into a Pixelfed instance, that would give me enough motivation to actually set up a local art Pixelfed I think. But then again, maybe that is the young technologist in me, always eager to solve problems with my keyboard, when perhaps I should just start with some conversations, and be relational about it.
