Google and other megacorps with AI slopbots: AI bots should be free to slurp up as much data as they want. It doesn't break copyright!
Also those companies: Wait, AI isn't allowed to steal from us!

It's not even their own content. Google took the search results from the sites they crawled and scraped.
Unless they pay us the USDB!
From The Verge page: "SerpApi says it can deliver Google search results for use by AI tools, but Google claims it’s illegally evading bot-blockers to steal copyrighted content."
Bwahahahah! Oh, now that gave me a great laugh!
Can you post the archive link so I don’t have to laugh at The Verge asking for me to give them money for their “journalism”?
Evading blocks isnt illegal
