I pretty much hate the mindset of don't do something if it might make someone else money even if you otherwise want to do it. One of several issues I have with the non-commercial creative commons license.
I didn’t say don’t do something. I said do something and understand a modern consequence. Go ahead publish but don’t be surprised when your work isn’t attributed correctly in the future and empowers people you may not agree with.
Blogs aren’t the only form of publishing and sharing.
Maybe after the AI winter subsides it might make sense again. A world where people were encouraged to publish to share knowledge ended up being publish to support Google’s hold on the net, now evolved to publish so people can read 5% of what you wrote distilled through statistical summation.
It makes all long form content look bad, not just the bad long form content. It continues to enable the societal trend of only consuming short form content. Which in turn enables reactionary and low information behavior instead of critical thought.
