what if they scraped a whole lot of the internet, and those excerpts were in random blogs and posts and quotes and memes etc etc all over the place? They didnt injest the material directly, or knowingly.
Not knowing something is a crime doesn't stop you from being prosecuted for committing it.
It doesn't matter if someone else is sharing copyright works and you don't know it and use it in ways that infringes on that copyright.
"I didn't know that was copyrighted" is not a valid defence.
