    How so? On Lemmy, at least, they are absolutely not private. It is just a way for two users to communicate without cluttering up a thread or something. Not a way to communicate in secret.

    EDIT: Oh, I missed the joke. DM = Dick Move. Woosh

      It’s private in the sense that the DMs were made between 2 people. They are public in the sense that the admins of the instance(s) can read the DMs. Just like admins of any server can read anything that’s not encrypted at source.

        so… only admins can read the mail but the counterparty can’t disclose their own mail?

        wtf sort of logic does this rely on

          No. Admins can read any mail. And everyone has access to their own mail?! And I mean everyone can disclose anything in their posession. It’s just not allowed and unethical. Though in most cases you’re allowed to publish what you wrote yourself. You just may not publish other people’s secrets or info publicly.

            Almost everything you said isn’t true. Point to the rule that says someone can’t disclose a DM they were part of? Unethical? Sure.

            And I mean everyone can disclose anything in their posession.

            It’s just not allowed

            Make up your mind.

            Also Drag is a troll. Has suggested that several people commit suicide. Drag doesn’t get a pass. Drag is a piece of shit. Don’t be Drag.

              Not sure where you live, and I don’t know much about US law, but for me, it’s §203 and §206 StGB. Get’s you either fined, or up to a maximum of 1 or 5 years in jail. And especially §206 is super clear and specifically mentions electronic letters. I can assure you, I’m 100% correct on that.

              Killing it with this one…

              Also, drag didn’t feel genuine and that’s a deal breaker for me

                You’re a shitposter, and I’ve told you I disagree with you more often than I agree. But fuck me, Drag is verifiably a piece of shit. When you don’t, and i say this with love, have your head up your ass…I’ll have your back.

                I’m being catty. Hoping you vibe with the teasing. Work drinks, last joke before bed. Hope I nailed it… Just like I nailed your mum!

                OK, I’ll stop for real.

                    God damnit. See this is what I mean. I see a moronic comment, I look over and see it’s your username. No need to follow your “content” or watch your history when you’re stupid all over the place.

                    Since your mum and I bumped uglies, that de-facto makes me your dad. I’m a responsible parent, and I love unconditionally. 30% is the best you can do, and that’s enough.
