They can and do fight dirty. They don't only use legal tactics, they use legal options to get the information off from trustworthy sources.
Like torrents, you first have to resort to random websites who get randomly taken down as they acquire reputation. If a person takes the face and responsibility for something, he gets litigated into oblivion.
So you get to the point where trustworthy and untrustworthy sources are indistinguishable
.
Now what they do is create untrustworthy sources. Like time for popcorn. Sow discord.
Fork several times, create intentionally malwared versions of both the program and the website. Keep kicking off the trustworthy sources of search engines, while magically skipping takedown requests for the less trustworthy websites.
Find ways to break old versions if possible, just to force them to keep moving. (they can make gradio randomly change APIs just to break the old trustworthy versions)
All of this can happen.
- JohnnyNewhouse 4y agoFight dirty, you say? Capital idea. Let's see, the principals of any company or trade group that try litigating model providers "into oblivion" can have some more legal fun when synthetic images of them diddling their kids find their way to law enforcement or local vigilante organisations. And for anyone too squeamish for that, there should be a way to use the tech to do a really good SWATing for suspected murder -- bit of fine-tuning on screenshots from ISIS and Mexican drug gang videos, etcetera. Before this gets flagged to oblivion, this is obvious. You just have to recognise that the "regulators" and industry insiders Emad is trying to "shield" you from are enemies and ask yourself, how do I hurt them?
