I’m trying to get to a reason on this, but my point reach to a limit.
I’ve the feels that scraping the internet for public accessible data, like for example open and public music on Spotify wouldn’t be a crime, but the distribution would be. At the same token, this is seem as a crime, while Google does the same and nothing happens, even worse, if this get regulated, Google would have a huge advantage on anyone else.
So, my deeper question is: “Is copyright dead?”


I’ve written more than one piece of software, and plenty of wordpress themes. I always release them without a license, for anyone to use however they want. copyright is capitalist nonsense and only exists to gatekeep creative freedom and stifle innovation.
you should release it as public domain; unfortunately others can’t “legally” use anything just because they have access to it (no license).
yeah, it’s absolutely stupid capitalist theater
I don’t care about laws or legality, and neither should you.
I think everyone should care about lawas and legality. It’s a bad advice to tell anyone to not care.
I hate capitalism and the way it devalues people, reducing them to consumers. The fact remains we live in it, and have to eat. If you release everything to AI crawlers, what do you eat, assuming you don’t lay tiles for a living, which would make you “rich” but very busy…
