>a decision Bloomberg says Amazon made to satisfy regulators
Regulators are out of control, yes. But that does not change the fundamental nature of the internet. Especially as it pertains to something which is purely data, copyrighted material. Amazon is not stopping filipino and bulgarian kids from downloading mission impossible any time soon. Nor is it stopping people from bulgaria from paying for AI services in the Philippines which are trained on American data.
