> and liable legally—when they breach consumer privacy, collecting, monetizing or sharing personal information without express consent

This part is even more important. Personal data is being used to train models. All is very dystopian with a cyber punk flavor.

We failed to stop Microsoft and Facebook from using our private data and WhatsApp messages to train their algorithms. Now we need to learn from the mess they created and stop Microsoft and OpenAI from using our conversations with AI to train their models, build LLM versions of ourselves, and sell them to banks, recruiters, or anyone willing to pay good money to get inside our minds.

Imagine if we stole all the documents stored on Google's private servers and all their proprietary code, research, and everything they've built, and used it to create a new company called Poogle that competes directly with them.

And just like that, after 24hs of stealing all their IP, we launch:

- Poogle Maps

- Poogle Search

- Poogle Docs

- Poogle AI

- Poogle Phone

- Poogle Browser

And here's the funny part: we claim the theft of their data is "fair use" because we changed the name of the company, and rewrote their code in another language.

Doesn't sound right, does it? So why are Microsoft (OpenAI, Anthropic) and Google financing the biggest act of IP theft in the history of the internet and telling people and businesses that stealing their private data and content to build competing products is somehow "fair use"?

Just like accountants log every single transaction, companies should log every book, article, photo, or video used to train their models, and compensate the copyright holders every time that content is used to generate something new.

The whole "our machines are black boxes, they’re so intelligent we don't even know what they're doing" excuse doesn't cut it anymore.

Stop with the nonsense. It's software, not voodoo.
