    It’s absolutely being used to avoid employing or paying people. Or giving them ‘editing’ jobs for a fraction of the pay.

    Internet Archive also lost its copyright case. So generative AI/LLMs get to access and to take everything but humans aren’t allowed to have an archive of resources that would otherwise be lost.

    Seriously fuck this corporate netscape

      That fucking sucks. I’ve relied on internet archive a lot in the past. Wish I had enough storage to grab parts of it before they got taken down.

        They haven’t been taken down but they did lose access to 500,000 books.
