Remember Aaron Swartz and the tragic fate he suffered? Remember the kids who downloaded games or MP3 files, whose parents were threatened, and in some cases, extorted for money under copyright laws? Yes, where are those copyright laws now? Why are courts and governments now giving a free pass to filthy rich OpenAI, Microsoft, Google & Anthropic? I hate everything about this dual treatments. These AI companies even have audacity to tell others their AI output is copyrighted & others can't use it

@nixCraft@mastodon.social absolutely. I remember all of that stuff. Poor Aaron. This whole thing is a travesty.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Very very true. Everything we create is fed into giant LLM's and moneytized without our consent. In corporations there now are companies that are too big to fail, and also too big to ever break the law.

@nixCraft@mastodon.social Just absolutely galling. It also tells us exactly what is wrong with today's world.
