minus-squarePhoenixz@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 day agoYeah no, only a select few special Ai companies, of course
minus-squareScrollone@feddit.itlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 day agoThat’s exactly what Meta did, they torrented the full libgen database of books. If they can do it, anybody should be able to do it.

minus-squareAux@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 day agoIt doesn’t. You can download anything you want, distribution is what is illegal and criminal.
