    It’s illegal when a regular person steals something, but it’s innovation and courage, when a huge corporation steals something. Interesting how that works

      Honestly it’s fucking angering. So much regulation and geo-restrictions and licensing schemes… but it’s cool that there are data brokers, and shit like this. On top of it all Chrome screwing us with manifest v3 and killing ad blocking on chrome. It’s already in canary build.

      WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS SPECIES?!

        Google are actually doing really awesome work with manifest v3. A pimp needs to smack their b1tches around every once in a while to remind them who’s boss.

          I’m glad there are at least some people enjoying this, you know being a bitch to big corps.

      They’re not stealing your data, they’re pirating it.

        They’re not pirating it. They’re collecting it.

          They’re not collecting it. They’re archiving it.

                Is the problem that wayback machine isn’t profiting from it?

                  It’s not so much the lack of profits, more like the lack of kickbacks.

      Any regular person can scrape and use public data for AI use, it’s not illegal for companies or individuals and it shouldn’t be.
