They have been scraped THREE TIMES now. Despicable. These AI techbro chuds don't give a shit about consent, and someone should probably check their computers.

“Scraping is necessary to develop good models. It’s like building a highway – some houses must be demolished, but in the end everyone benefits,” the poster wrote in a thread titled “[AMA] I scraped all of Cara.”

Sloppers love it when you do the hard work of maintaining a clean dataset for them to steal.
They are being targeted by individuals specifically just to troll them. It's not even random corporations slurping it up as a casualty, just nasty people.
This (non-) understanding of the word no or consent should land them on some kind of watch list.
Can infrastructure providers start dedicating their knowledge of scraper infra to the public domain so we all can start to respond appropriately to these toxic networks?
Did they not glare the images, to poison datasets?
