Hey, if you, like me, are a US citizen who's had your books/stories/articles stolen by Meta to train AI, you can submit your name to the class action suit using this easy contact form for one of the law firms involved:

@stephanieburgis That is so aggravating! How much of your work did they steal?
@sylvia @stephanieburgis just to be on the safe side, i will do a WHOIS command on the link to see if its a phishing scam. if it looks too good to be true, it likely is :(
The Woke Elders of THE CABAL OF ARGUS
We will see
.-.-.
@sylvia 47 works. :(
@stephanieburgis Holy crap. The THIEVES
@stephanieburgis
This may interest @cstross and others if foreigners are allowed.
@quixoticgeek
Thank you for this! I just learned about this theft yesterday and was wondering what could be done.
@stephanieburgis Do you know of anything similar for Canadian authors?
@David_Kelly_SF I don't. :(
@stephanieburgis Thanks, anyway
@stephanieburgis what does “stolen” mean here? Did they circumvent a paywall or what?
@jonathankoren they used online archives like libgen which contain many copyrighted written works. @stephanieburgis
@jonathankoren definitely not fair use. Fair use has a scope and training an AI LLM in iorder to generate profit in outside this scope. @stephanieburgis
That literally has nothing to do with fair use.
@jonathankoren are you being sarcastic? I can't tell. @stephanieburgis
@stephanieburgis How do you determine if your book was scraped?
@stephanieburgis I'd be curious to know how I or another person might know if our work was stolen?
@stephanieburgis Very much appreciated. Someone I know shows up in that database.
@stephanieburgis You can search if your work was stolen by Facebook here: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/03/search-libgen-data-set/682094/
@stephanieburgis, hey @seaotta, maybe this is for you
Mireille Sillander @stephanieburgis Absolutely wild that my book is in there when I'm literally no one, and none of my books are free.
And I can't even take part in this suit if it's US only :(
