I think she is refering to the enclosure movement, a proto-capitalist strategy to privatize public land. Karl Marx talks about it a lot as a way for capitalism to take root in a society. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enclosure

They are suggesting that ai is a way for private interests to control foss.

    She and yes I am.

    The enclosure of the Commons largely carried out under absolutist monarchs.

    LLMs are a naked attempt to enclose the vast intellectual and cultural commons online, not just FOSS. Clammy Sammy nakedly talks about a future "where you buy intelligence from us on a meter", sites where people taught each other have been mined for knowledge and then destroyed, cultures of sharing destroyed, private blogs closed under a tide of bot hammering.

    Where must you go for all this now? They are literally buying and destroying books. It's madness.
