I can't blame Amazon specifically for it, but it is amazing how the wider tech industry is simultaneously pushing DRM down our throats and scraping/pirating any content they can find for training AI.




I did not look toe matter up in detail, but I am astonished as well in regard to this development. A grab for control over basic devices and a mass robbing of the commons.

There is no strong political pushback from the parties/voters to this large scale collective theft of IP by cooperations, is there?

I would expect some sort of taxation and redistribution to the content creators like there is with music content etc.
