In the case of unreleased work, you writing about your knowledge of it is just proof that you obtained the work, which is proof that you committed a tort/trespass. Just like if you published a newspaper article with information you could only have acquired by hacking someone's phone. I'm not sure what a court would find against you, but it seems clear that there would be some way to couch that as a legal grievance.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoHmm...if I get on the internet and download and read a paper from some website, am I liable if that paper was actually private if I had no clue it was obtained illegally? It seems to me that the distributor would be liable at that point, not the person who got it from the distributor (unless they knew they were stolen goods, then of course they are liable!). A search engine that indexes the internet might be equally liable at that point, although the DCMA gives them an out if they have a mechanism to remove pirated entries from their index on request. Could LLMs have the same out?
