      Everything is scraped for training data. They argue that this is fair use under the “research” exemption. However, it is not research, the datasets they build are private and used exclusively for commercial product development.

      Even if you could consider it as fair use research - which it isn’t - the commerciality of it should exclude it from being fair use.
