LAION is just a large scale scrape of the web, it's a bunch of images with the alt text. So you can say the same about the web itself.

Before taking a moral high ground, please take your time to learn how it works. LAION is well known for its notoriously poor quality simply due to being humongous. There's all sorts of unwanted crap in here. Everyone training on it knows that and does filter it, because it's practically unusable otherwise.
