Copyright reform is necessary for national security

Chinese LLMs (including DeepSeek) are trained on my illegal archive of books and papers — the largest in the world. The West needs to overhaul copyright law as a matter of national security.

    I deleted my comment because I missed that your summary is their summary lol.

    I feel their summary is not the same point as their article. They’re arguing that freedom of information is important for technological advancement. Summary feels like they’re suddenly pro copyright.

    Thanks for sharing. Freedom of information is important. Period.

      I assume they’re being pragmatic. Appealing the us to remove copyright is a fools errand. Appealing to shorten the length of the prection period is too frankly given the nature of corporate protectionism but it’s far more likely than America ever entertaining the idea of free information, regardless of the benefits that could ensue. Think of the shareholders! And yourself! Gotta hang that carrot in front of you. What if you finally write that novel and it blows up! I know you secretly want to be a multimillionaire! No one just makes art or has passion to study and document something without financial gain, that’s dumb. Ignore all those forum posts where people do exactly that

        Thanks for the reply.

        If I wrote a book I do wish I could get paid to live off of it. That said I get your point. My work will never make any money sadly lol
