With the latest announcement regarding google allegedly paying reddit 60million per year for access to user created content to train their AI, what is stopping companies from using the freely available information on the lemmyverse to do it for free?

How does everyone feel about the likelihood of this already happening and should something be done about it?

      Realistically with how Fediverse works they could just ban his actor from their collection node and it’ll ignore all requests made by him or replies to him, as if they never even happened.
