Discovered this morning that Maven heymaven.com (a social media startup who's CEO is ex OpenAI "Ken Stanley: leading the Open-Endedness Team at OpenAI") is mass importing public posts from the with no links back to the original and no way to delete them. It seems there is no Opt-out or Opt-in mechanism at all. It also has posts from pulled in via @bsky.brid.gy that are also not linked back to the original.

Here's an example: app.heymaven.com/profile/66927

@liaizon @bsky.brid.gy
Sorry, but can anyone tell me in very simple terms how to block this please?

@Sarahw @bsky.brid.gy you can't do anything. they did it in a shady way so blocking it doesn't work.

@liaizon @bsky.brid.gy
Oh dear. Thanks for replying. That's pretty crap.
