@ben lawsuit! Lawsuit! Lawsuit!

"Terms can change without notice" etc clauses are often unenforceable.

People should class-action these predatory scrapers. I BET m$ has used data they did not have rights to for training. Errbody should sue. Sue sue sue. "AI" is the providence of mankind, not some rich douche

@cykonot @ben lawsuits only work if the prosecution is willing to swallow the court costs, sometimes spanning years. This is how companies get away with criminal acts Scott free. Usual War of attrition stuff. 🫠

@tembryglint @cykonot @ben prosecutors don't determine lawsuits

@sortius @tembryglint @cykonot @ben prosecutors absolutely do determine lawsuits. If there’s no profit in winning your case then a prosecutor won’t take it and you lose by default.
