It's pretty much the same as when "installing programs on your computer" is called "sideloading". Deliberately deceptive, weaponized language to make it seem like a bad thing.

So?

Fraudsters don't want to be jailed, their victims don't want to be scammed, employees don't want to be laid off, etc.

What the target wants is irrelevant - what society wants as enforced by laws is what is relevant, and as the leading AI providers have demonstrated, simply grabbing other people's copyrighted stuff for learning purposes is perfectly fine!

If they already think this practice is fine, why would I believe that their concerns about this are real?
