   Meta illegally downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna’s Archive, and Z-Library to train their AI

   In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded just 70GB of JSTOR articles

   0.0875% of what Meta took

   He faced $1M in fines and 35 years in jail. The pressure from the US government caused Aaron to take his own life in 2013

   If corporations are people than what fate does Meta deserve?
