Its not a typo, someone coined that during the DeepSeek R1 hype period and I kept using it since then. I totally agree with you on the fact that it's not morally any different than pre-training. IMHO we should have a legislation that f

I don't think it's a very good remark, as there's significantly less email spam than 20 years ago. Another example is ad-blocker-blocker. There was a little bit of an arm race between ad blockers and advertisers in the middle
