So you don't think downloading something from The Pirate Bay constitutes copyright infringement provided you don't republish it?

Precisely. The person sharing is the one breaking the law.
I just want to confirm this, you believe that when OpenAI and their agents post copyright material that they did not pay for verbatim it is breaking the law?
You are wrong then. Confidently wrong.
U.S.: Downloading = infringement. If prosecuted, usually gets civil lawsuits/fines, not jail.
E.U.: Same — both downloading/hosting illegal, but hosts get cracked down harder.
That's factually wrong, downloading without sharing is also illegal.
