    There was an episode of behind the bastards I was listening to a while back where they mentioned some dude who was using an AI tool to scrape the internet to steal other people’s art, so people started doing something that prevented him from optimally stealing their art.

    I can’t remember what exactly, but the guy started whining that whatever people were doing was “illegal” bc it was damaging his tool he was using to steal other people’s shit for his own profit. Like somebody telling you that it’s illegal to prevent them from efficiently stealing your property bc it interferes with their livelihood. How dare you!

    Anyway, that’s the kind of vibes I get from this.
