This pearl clutching over piracy is extremely ironic in the age of AI. For years it's been said that piracy is akin to stealing money from creators of all sorts. And ostensibly to protect the rights of those creators we've had various laws and tech solutions like DRM in place. Those tech solutions are supplemented by further laws that make it illegal to break DRM even on content that you paid for and own. Apparently preventing people from breaking DRM on stuff they paid for, protects the rights of content creators somehow.
Yet in the midst of all this, AI companies can train their models on any and all content, with zero attribution let alone compensation to the people that created that content, and then rejoice at the number of those people that they'll put of a job. So it's a crime to pirate a movie to watch with your family, but take petabytes worth of data from millions of people to train an AI that you will monetize, and that is perfectly legal.
