Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

The fucking hypocrisy of it all stings. Years of everyone being told not to copy that floppy or Lars Ulrich takes your girlfriend because you wouldn't download a car, would you? Turns out when Microsoft and Softbank bankroll you for billions to download all the warez the internet has to offer, Mickey will not only let you off scot free but gives you a warm sloppy pat on the back as a bonus. With enough doubloons you're not a pirate anymore, you're the navy.

It gets worse, our local anti piracy org BREIN went after smaller llms for copyright infringement. But nothing about the big ones it seems.

From too big to fail to too big to sue.
