Demand tech companies release all copyright holder data used to train Gen AI (short vers.)
The issue
This protest is directed against
ALL AI COMPANIES or TECH COMPANIES
in relation to
COPYRIGHTED INFORMATION
which they have
COPIED FROM COPYRIGHT HOLDERS WITHOUT THEIR OWNER’S PERMISSION.
Demanding they
***RELEASE ALL DATA ABOUT ANY COPYRIGHTED INFORMATION WHICH THEY HAVE COPIED IN SECRET WITHOUT THE OWNERS PERMISSION***
doing this under claim of Fair Use, then used the secretly copied copyrighted information to
TRAIN GENERATIVE AI PROGRAMS
which
COMPETE AGAINST THE LEGITIMATE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS IN THE MARKETPLACE
Which therefore makes the Fair Use claim invalid. You can’t copy material secretly under a claim of fair use, reassemble or as they say, ‘transform’ them together without revealing who you’ve copied from, then use the resulting content to compete against the very copyright holders which you’ve taken the information from.
That’s not Fair Use. That’s not Transformative.
That’s COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT.
If they don’t comply, then the justice system should:
ENFORCE COPYRIGHT LAW!

(Note: there is a long rationale for this demand, with many references, which is in a different protest:
This shorter protest here was created in case you wanted the same demand, but were uncomfortable with, or disagreed with any of my rationale or references. Thanks!)
