Who is "they" and "we" in this?

As far as I'm aware, the people telling us not to pirate content are the people currently suing OpenAI for (allegedly) using pirated content to train their models.

I think that's a socially very interesting comment.

Sadly I'm afraid that the ToS is going to f*k us on this

Another hot take is "if buying isn't owning piracy isn't stealing".

Big corporations/governments set the rules.

Rules are for small people.

It's interesting how defensive you are about being socially conscious.

My life got better when I switched from worrying if I was acting in a nonconformist way to worrying that I might be perceived as a conformist.

Why not just do what you think is best? Why do you care so much about conforming or not conforming?

It's good to have a balanced opinion about technology. You're not a luddite for thinking so. Think for yourself.

Edit: Thought you were the same person. Comment still applies regarding conformity.
