So you argument is that Chinese AI companies are less biased because they have access to tightly controlled Chinese internet data?

Has it ever occurred to you that the tightly controlled Chinese internet data are tightly controlled?

Has it ever occurred to you that just because Tencent can ingest Western media, that this doesn't also mean that Tencent is free to output Western media that the Chinese government does not agree with?

Please go back to school and study harder, you have disappointed me. EMOTIONAL DAMAGE.

Bollocks and hallucinatory nonsense. The trademark page had made it abundantly clear that use of "WP" was not protected by trademark and only made it an issue ex-post-facto when Matt decided one day that he didn't like the competition. The trademark claims are bollocks, nonsense, bogus — entirely without merit.

If you don't like your open source work being used by others to do for-profit things then don't license it as GPL or don't open source it to begin with. You can't retroactively come out and complain after the fact once you've already given all your IP away and made it abundantly clear that "WP" isn't a trademark, and BY THE WAY the jurisprudence on trademark law makes it difficult to even try to claim a trademark or servicemark from two letters put together!

I don't know if they committed "theft" under criminal law, but I would bet lots of money that Automattic is going to get obliterated by the complaint filed by WP Engine, probably including injunctive relief. Tortious interference in a contract is normally difficult to prove because one of the elements is malice or intent to cause harm, but Matt basically handed WP Engine's lawyers all the ammo they would ever need during his yappy media tour.

I would further bet that Matt's either on drugs or maybe has a brain tumor or some other undiagnosed medical condition. Only an insane person would destroy their entire reputation and life's work like this.
