I’ve just watched the video. I find it pretty outrageous. The word about it should spread.

    You mean before or after all the sites updated their ToS it so that they were legally in the clear to sell user posts to AI training companies? Implying that they weren’t before?

    Being more specific is not the same as changing something from illegal to legal.

      the update to the legal contract they have you agree to was in no way legally motivated?

        CYA is not necessarily the same as changing the substance.

        LLMs were a big paradigm shift. They’re not necessarily something that could’ve been imagined when writing the original TOSs

          why would they need to cover themselves against the scenario you’re arguing they were already covering themselves against?

          that could’ve been imagined when writing the original TOSs

          or when agreeing to them, which is literally the problem here

          you can’t meaningfully consent to every arbitrary hypothetical future scenario
