"If the Supreme Court doesn’t reverse a lower court’s ruling, internet service providers (ISPs) could be forced to terminate people’s internet access based on nothing more than mere accusations of copyright infringement. This would threaten innocent users who rely on broadband for essential aspects of daily life. EFF—along with the American Library Association, the Association of Research Libraries, and Re:Create—filed an amicus brief urging the Court to reverse the decision.
The Stakes: Turning ISPs into Copyright Police
Among other things, the Supreme Court approving the appeals court’s findings will radically change the amount of risk your ISP takes on if a customer infringes on copyright, forcing the ISP to terminate access to the internet for those users accused of copyright infringement—and everyone else who uses that internet connection."

Apparently, going to prison or paying millions for copyrighted works is yesterday's news. In our new AI world, the price is at most $ 3,000 per work, with a solution so shoddy that the judge withholds final approval.

In Germany a court decided that even smaller online platforms can be held responsible for infringing content uploaded by users, if they don't have some form of screening:

This is a major win against AI deepfakes and unauthorized digital identity use. The digital self is officially personal property! 💥
