This is my official request, per item 3 on the Bluesky Developer Guidelines, to have my data removed from this dataset.

The AT protocol was built around publicly available data, which is consented to when signing up for BlueSky. Clauses 2 and 3 from the Bluesky Developer Guidelines pertain to "apps with user-generated content or social networking features" which would not include a simple dataset such as this.

This limitation only applies to Clause 2. Clause 3, which requirese a method for deleting content per request explicitly mentions "All services".

Incorrect.

"Developers who federate their apps or services on the AT Protocol must adhere to the Bluesky Developer Guidelines in order to communicate with Bluesky services"

As this is not an app or service, it does not need to heed a request for deletion. This is publicly available data, which anyone can go scrape if they wanted to.

Whether providing scraped datasets on a third party website counts as an "app or service" in this sense remains to be seen (i believe it should), but i was merely pointing out that "Clause 3 from the Bluesky Developer Guidelines pertain to "apps with user-generated content or social networking features" " is incorrect.

Hello! I took a look at your PUBLIC bluesky account, and while I can see why you would want this embarassing information hidden, this dataset was collected legally and in accordance with the policies of both Blue Sky and HuggingFace. Thanks!

This is publicly available data, which anyone can go scrape if they wanted to.

How did they scrape that data? Did they perhaps use an "app or service"? Presumably, the scraping app had to federate with the AT Protocol in order to get the data?

Just because something is in public, it doesn't mean that you have unfettered rights to it.

Huggingface is not "federating an app on the AT protocol", and is thus not bound by its "developer guidelines". These guidelines apply to people who want to use this data, not to the data itself. Once again, anyone is free to go and collect it without any restrictions, which might I add is core to the AT protocol's functionality.

People are going to lose their shit when they realize that commoncrawl has been crawling everything on the internet for the past 17 years.
