    Imagine going after those seeking to protect their works from being stolen by AI, instead of the AI scrapers that caused this entire shit show to begin with. Put the blame where it makes sense, and don’t try to guilt trip those that are victim of intellectual property theft, into believing they are the ones responsible for the web becoming an accessibility-nightmare; not for just the disabled, but everyone (locking content behind: a login, PoW challenges, and CAPTCHAs). Awful defeatist take.

      Yes! Any work created is copyrighted by the owner by default. It doesn’t require registration for legal protection. This needs to be a class action lawsuit from everyone against AI companies that have stolen their content for profit.

          You’d be hard pressed to find a lemmy user supporting pirating something then selling it

          It’s the only legal option to defend against theft. It’s like water should be a human right that is free but then Nestle goes and drains the aquifers for free and resells it to the public.

            What I mean is that majority of the time people here are pro copyright infringement and against copyright laws
