'Meta Torrented over 81 TB of Data Through Anna's Archive, Despite Few Seeders' * TorrentFreak
-
-
TPB and 1337x are torrents, whereas Anna’s Archive typically uses direct downloads. So it’s more akin to the old CoolROMs back before the massive takedown purges.

Where is the source content then

Rules for thee, not for me

Average ebook size: 2.5 MB or so.
Meta downloaded 81 TB, or 81,000,000 MB.
81,000,000 / 2.5 = Approx 30 million books.
30,000,000 books * $250,000 per offence = $7.5 trillion

Yes. This exactly.

You’re confusing libleft with left.
-
You’re confusing self entitlement to stuff with the left.

Lolwut? Public good is self-entitlement? Go read a fucking book. Communists are not pro-copyright, especially not when it only benefits the giant corpos.

That must have touched a sensitive spot lol.

20 was the lead engineer 'mishearing' Zuck after he said 2.

I support FOSS LLMs, but which actually exist? Which LLMs have open-sourced all their training data?
-
The existence hinges on the rewriting and strengthening of copyright laws by data brokers and other cancerous tech companies. It's not Meta vs us, but Meta and us vs Google and Openai.
They are being sued for copyright infringement when it's clearly highly transformative. The rules are fine as is, Meta isn't the one trying to change them. You seem to imply I should go against my own interests and support frivolous lawsuits that will negatively impact me just because Meta is a boogeyman.

Just gotta love these big tech companies and their bullshit double standards.
