   ℹ️ ✍️ There is some controversy about journalists quoting people from the fediverse, what they also do on the almost extinct bird. This is not illegal and common practice on social media, and falls under citation right (EU) / fair use (US) and the freedom of press. Something that I and others on Todon.* find important. Still it's not done that they do this without permission. So to avoid this you can do the following:

   #1. Write in your bio and a pinned post that you don't want be quoted. You even can select a license from https://creativecommons.org/.

   #2. If you really want to be safe, make sure you always post to followers only (https://todon.nl/settings/preferences/other) and require follow requests (https://todon.nl/settings/profile).

   If they still quote you, especially after #2 I advise you to contact the journalist or news organisation.
