Really looks like the last solution is a legal one, using the DMCA against them using the digital protection or access control circumvention clause or smth.

DMCA only applies to hosted content and we've established that LLM aren't hosting copyrighted content as there is significant transformation which you would otherwise need to prove yourself by training and replicating their entire model.

There is no legal recourse here, if you don't want AI crawlers accessing your content 1) put it behind a paywall 2) remove from public access

  • I'm not talking about the output of the LLM here. DMCA is an overreaching law. Here i'm talking about its provisions for access controls and "digital locks", i am not a lawyer but i'm fairly sure you could find some way to categorize Anubis/another software as a digital lock and then sue them on that basis.
