Publicly available =/= public domain.

Its not piracy to just webscrap everything for data…
Yes it is.
Authors need to be able to make a living from writing, unless you want far less books to be written. And there is some logic in allowing them to leave some sort of rights to their family, even if it’s only for like 10 years.

Now, all that being said, my personal opinion is fuck the US legal system and fuck copyright.
Some form of copyright has to exist, and - as angrily explained to me by authors - it needs to extend somewhat beyond the life of the author. I’m certainly never going to agree with it being indefinite though.
I’m amazed that it’s taken this long for a high profile lawsuit about it.
Meh, if it dies it dies.
The sheer amount of ads on youtube is what's making people use ad blockers. Two unskippable 15 second ads after one minute of a ten minute video is ridiculous.

The thing is that for medium to large companies it’s probably less expensive to pay people a nominal fee for pictures than it would be to risk being sued by, say, Disney, Nintendo, WWE or Games Workshop (to use some famously litigious companies).
To me the obvious answer would be to pay people a small amount per photo for pictures of various things and then use that as training data.
Pretty cool. I’m guessing they have smaller though.
Difficult to miss Jupiter even if you try, I think.
One way to break all Youtube livestream viewer records…
My guess is that they are seeing this as less likely to become a security hole.
To quote a song, “I sometimes find joy in the sound of the rain / you have to find joy where you can”.
If they lose this lawsuit (which they will) then all archiving of anything which isn’t public domain is in danger.
Thank you, Elon Musk.
