I've never seen the government try to make laws as damn bulletproof as this one "for our own good". You'd think we were dealing with access controls for nuclear waste here, but it's actually as banal as preventing a

Even if you believe the "we don't train on your data" claim/lie, that leaves a whole lot of things they can do with it besides training directly on it. Analytics can be run on it, they can run it through their own models
