@arstechnica Zuckerberg is scum.

“According to a Meta court filing, its initial efforts to compile massive AI datasets were managed through an “informal approach” where supposedly nobody with authority made any decisions…

“And while Meta has argued that communications that might identify who specifically authorized certain torrenting instances are privileged, at least one string of unredacted messages unsealed early last year allegedly showed that the decision to download from LibGen, for example, occurred after “a prior escalation to MZ” (Mark Zuckerberg).”

@arstechnica "Everyone was just focused on their fiduciary responsibility to maximize shareholder value -- and not, you know, 'making decisions' that they might be 'held legally responsible for' later on -- that makes sense, guys, right?"

@arstechnica so we start at the top and jail them until we get an email saying “ make sure we get legal permission before we scan”. If it never got sent the entire c-suite gets RICO’d together.

@arstechnica it was ... ... the AI itself that decided this to do!

@arstechnica Corporate accountability is "not me" all the way to the top.

***Somebody*** decided to start the project. Who was that?
