    The enemy of my enemy is not necesarily my friend. However, when two of my enemies start killing each other, I can’t help but to cheer for both of them, hoping for one to kill the other.

    “We will not tolerate profit-seeking entities like Anthropic commercially exploiting Reddit content for billions of dollars without any return for redditors or respect for their privacy,” said Ben Lee, Reddit’s chief legal officer, in a statement to TechCrunch.

    “WAAAH! HOW DO YOU DARE? WE CALLED DIBS ON THAT!”

    …cut off the crap. You give no fucks about returning shit to those muppets or respecting their privacy. You care about money.

    I’d tell you to go back to Reddit but you’re Reddit so… fuck off back to yourself.

    I want to see those big corpos DDoS-ing the internet going the way of the dodo. And Reddit too. A plague in both houses. Let you fight until mutual destruction.

    I have been pretty vocal about how strengthening copyright laws would only help website like reddit, record companies and publishing houses.

    They sold “their” data for 60 million to google. None of us got a dime. This dream where artist and conrtibuters somehow get a part of the profits is pure pipe.

    Reddit isn’t fighting for us, they are fighting over who gets to screw us.

      Yes, but we also want the AI companies to lose.

        Reddit losing this lawsuit would be a loss to reddit and a loss to the AI companies, since they wont be able to build their monopoly over the fresh corpse of the open source options.

    I thought all data was free real estate for AI model training? Will be interesting to see how this goes.
