Did they think they could get away with it?

    If Meta gets away with this or gets off lightly, I’d love for this to set a future legal precedent for future piracy cases.

    Unless they just straight up want to say “Piracy and copyright laws only apply to poor people” in a court of law.

      I have no idea what you’re talking about. I don’t pirate media. I’m just slowly gathering a collection of AI training data.

          Exactly. Of course, I need to make sure the files are appropriate for AI training, so it’s imperative that I review the media in its entirety first.

        I’ll just spin up an llc and do all of my torrenting for market research

            That isn’t hard to do.

            One needs high priced lawyers.

      We already have precedent. They need to be fined the same rate as the Napster cases.
