Online discussions are linking The Pirate Bay, filesharing and digital piracy with OpenAI and the courts, framing the training of AI models on copyrighted works as a modern version of the old copying debate. Commenters using tags like justice, crime and economy are treating the legal battles over AI training data as a continuation of past filesharing controversies, with questions of freedom, politics and the future of the internet at stake.

Why now: Ongoing court cases over OpenAI's use of copyrighted material are reviving comparisons with the classic filesharing era.
