    I mean probably true, but that shouldn’t stop them from being liable if ordinary individuals are liable for the same actions. Sure, punish your employees, but if a parent is responsible to pay for a child’s pirating then an employer should be just as responsible for paying for an employee’s pirating.

    No, your honour, we did not use the porn downloaded to train our AI, at least not directly.

    The people working on training the AI? Oh, the definitely had a cheeky wank here and there after a stressful day! This just shows how committed Meta is to the wellbeing of our employees.

    Unfortunately the main accusation - that Meta systematically downloaded porn to use for AI training data - might actually be false if they aren’t lying about only having downloaded around 22 vids per year. Seems way too little data for a training set to me. Nonetheless they shouldn’t get away with downloading files they didn’t have permission for.
