Still doesn't prevent data mining of forums for, "training." Still doesn't give people who's contributed on forums a check for being of value to big tech. If they cared at all they'd be paying us money to train AI until it's established. Google is offering points for data rather than money (https://deviceusagestudy.google/signup/invitecode) I only know that because I got a flier in the mail which means they're desperate to get people to sign up.

So they take one extra step. Create a forum. Have a different company mine all the data and repost it to the forum. Then the AI company can mine the forum.

A rule like “forums are ok” is a goatse-sized gaping loophole.
