    This is why its so important we don’t legislate against AI and make it illegal to use scraped data. All the data is already owned by someone, putting up walls only screws us out of the open source scene.

      And legislate content ownership altogether. The idea that Reddit spent more than a decade growing its community just so that it could use our content as its own property is a huge issue. How do we safely and fairly communicate and express our ideas in society where the platforms that enable this automatically claim ownership of our ideas? Social media are middlemen with outsized influence.
