If you require an account, it’s harder to scrape you and train an AI for free using platform you've build with your own investment and effort. Until court rule in favor of copyright holders, welcome to the future where nothing is shared in the open anymore.

I'm curious who you consider that rights holder to be.

The creator.

[soraminazuki]

I asked because it sounded as if you considered it to be the platform. And let's not kid ourselves by pretending that this has to do with protecting the creators.

No, it’s simply that if it’s a violation against the creator, then the platform by extension doesn’t get hammered.

By the way, you know for legal purposes those creators (copyright holders) also include guys like Disney, Warner Bros, Penguin et al. right?
