IP stealing machine gets its IP stolen by IP stealing machine.

@SecurityWriter That's about how I feel as well. These companies are going out and scrapping enormous amounts of copyrighted content, many off sites which have published terms of service and which have obvious flags against scraping and inclusion in search indexes. This company did no more to them than they did to others. Both did wrong.

@SecurityWriter @volpeon funny how consent is never a problem until it’s _them_ in the firing line

[Gast]

@SecurityWriter

I had to laugh at this passage, too:

- Foreign AI companies that distill American models can weaponize these unprotected capabilities to facilitate malicious activities, cyber-related or otherwise, thereby serving as a foundation for military, intelligence, and surveillance systems that authoritarian governments can deploy for offensive cyber operations, disinformation campaigns, and mass surveillance. -

Oh, THEY would

@SecurityWriter

If irony were oil this would be a gusher.

@SecurityWriter
The best possible outcome is that everyone realises that all models can be easily "stolen" so there is no way to make money on new models and they just stop.

@SecurityWriter <insert some IPv6 joke here>

@SecurityWriter Ah. The conservative hyperbole.

(Yes, i’m saying Anthropic is being classic conservative here)

The emphasis on ”Don’t tread on me!” was always on ”me”..

Yeah, I'm not surprised.

@SecurityWriter What do you call thieves who thieve from thieves?

[Gast]

@SecurityWriter

Sorry, I could only find a tiny one.

[Gast]

@SecurityWriter Inception!

[Gast]

@SecurityWriter As others have said why don't they get their agentic/code slope to produce something to mitigate/stop this activity.

@Ostrobothnia @SecurityWriter apparently, suspended on your instance now
