Training AI models on copyrighted works is "squarely what transformative use is," EFF’s Tori Noble told Reason - these are "general purpose tools" and "exactly the kind of creation that copyright is designed to foster.” https://reason.com/2026/09/04/doj-says-barring-ai-training-on-copyrighted-material-could-severely-hamper-tech-progress/

@eff what the fuck is this
@eff alright, who shat in your brain?
@eff
So which AI model has escaped it sandbox now and hacked your account?
@eff Oops, no more donations from me
@eff Maybe these stupid #AI #Clankers can stop this stupid #DDoS attack on my server then?
If you have taken this hypocritical take on copyright, then you need to get your head out of you're ass, because if I did the same thing these companies are doing, I'd be sued into hell for it.
Translation: Someone at the #EFF is definitely getting fired over this stupid post.
@eff I fart in your general direction.
@eff Oh, that's disappointing.
@eff are you serious? You guys are compromised.
@eff did the EFF change on this? 😳
@eff EFF thinks they are so galaxy brained in their own heads they espouse a truely stupid take on AI.
@eff this is a shit position and you should be ashamed.
@eff No sane person loves transformative work that boils the ocean and makes hardware and electricity expensive
@eff 😫 It's really not.
@eff I'm surprised you're bragging about your staff attorney's boneheaded comment.
P.S. What are you patting yourself on the back for? Having a your staff attorney quoted in an article? I used to think EFF was cool but shameless self promotion is the opposite of cool. It's lame and gross.
