French publishers and authors are suing Meta Platforms Inc. for copyright infringement, accusing the tech giant of using their books to train its generative artificial intelligence model without authorization.
I wonder what their argument is. French copyright law governs France. People in the US have no obligation to follow it. Might as well fine people in the UK for driving on the wrong side of the road.
I was about to correct you before I realized that you must be trolling. In case you are not: Please take your statement and follow it to its natural conclusion. Think about the logical consequences of how things would work if your statement was correct.
What? Did you reply to the wrong post?
Do you really think that’s how the world works?
If copyright wasn’t international, tons of industries would have died from competition: software, books, movies, shows, etc…
The French pay to watch American movies and shows, read their books, etc. Why should american AI companies get french stuff for free?
I think OPs comment was meant to be read as “I wonder what their argument is:” then everything following that is probably what the US/Meta lawyers would say.
It’s international law aye but in Trump’s America anything goes.
Good.
For once, hit 'em with a fine for each and every instance of infringement.
Not one of those bullshit “all in one” fines either.
Make it count or it’s meaningless.
@Tea@programming.dev being threaten with jail time and fines won’t be enough, but the potential punishment needs to be so severe and harasment so relentless they’d consider hanging themselves instead. Aaron Swartz will not be forgotten.
Anna Archive should make a deal w DOJ, provide evidence about Meta, free the two zlib admin.
The goverment will kill Anna’s archive the moment laws stemming from this lawsuits are passed. It guarantees any new open source initiatives don’t surface once they are all shut down. The big players will be okay though since they can stomach the fines and pay for the data.
Legit fuck meta I hope somebody Mario parites with zuck
Excellent!
