Thanks to @mikarv for reminding me (see https://mastodon.ar.al/@mikarv@someone.elses.computer/109793985698320431), I just added the following license to my bio on my Mastodon site.

The issue is: how can these automated tools check the license? I don't think they will care enough to scrap the bio.
Isn't there any standard to specify in HTML and JSON what's the license of that content?
