Recent Friendica issue following NodeBB Activitypub groups (categories)
I noticed a problem that arose recently (no more than three or four months ago).
In practice, when I try to follow a NodeBB Activitypub group (citiverse.it instance) from Friendica (poliverso.org instance), Friendica doesn't recognize the group as an Activitypub actor and gives me this error message.
I'm experiencing this problem with both old and new groups.
For example, with the group @Bluesky, which is a few months old, at the link citiverse.it/category/55, it's recognized, but I can't join it. When I try to join, I get this error message.
Exception thrown in /var/www/friendica/src/Module/Contact/Profile.php:197
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/friendica/src/BaseModule.php(251): Friendica\Module\Contact\Profile->content()
#1 /var/www/friendica/src/App.php(595): Friendica\BaseModule->run()
#2 /var/www/friendica/src/App.php(190): Friendica\App->runFrontend()
#3 /var/www/friendica/index.php(22): Friendica\App->processRequest()
#4 {main}
With a newly created group, for example, the @wordpress@citiverse.it group at the link citiverse.it/category/231, I can't even capture it with the search function; and if I try to insert the link, it only captures the RSS actor.
What do you think the problem might be?

Surely in this case though you could comply just by defederating that particular piece of content / user?
It's interesting though that Amazon are recognizing Peertube content, even if just for copyright. That to me suggests they're keeping an eye on it, even if they likely don't consider it a major threat... yet.

in reply to TROM • • •"The video in question, a documentary about "aliens", a garbage piece of content, was NOT hosted on our instance, of course"
As other have said (and may yet say) IANAL
*That said* there is a vast difference between "hosted on" and "served from"
Your instance may *not* be the sole source for that content, but if a video consumer *gets* it though you, guess what?
It doesn't matter what "makes sense"
This is law, and lawyer-speak
Good luck with it
