Ad-funded piracy outlasts every enforcement window. https://ppc.land/doj-seizes-1-000-pirate-domains-as-colombia-blocks-1-140-more/ #Piracy #CopyrightInfringement #CyberSecurity #DigitalRights #IntellectualProperty

#Distillation, a technique used to improve #AImodels, has become a contentious issue: While some argue it enables #innovation and #efficiency, others, including U.S. officials, are concerned it allows Chinese companies to rapidly develop competitive AI models by leveraging American #intellectualproperty. This has led to a debate about whether distillation constitutes #IPtheft and how to balance innovation with #nationalsecurity concerns. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/25/hat-is-distillation-and-why-is-everyone-so-obsessed-with-it-this-week.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

Todays FOSS Drama served to you by @Codeberg
Tl;dr: Codeberg wants to exclude "vibed"/" LLM'd projects from its platform by means of TOU, hilarity ensues.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49003386 (via, also some discussion)
Adding one here: Burden of proof and how do you sufficiently prove or refute the "vibed" nature of any given work without falling to arbitrary / unpredictable results.
One more argument for self-hosting.Also interesting to projects such as #bizzfed or #nolto both of which would likely or clearly be banned from the platform now.
