The completely wrong approach. Why should we help companies that violate 
copyright laws to feed their bloody LLM? Just so that some script 
kiddies think they can actually write functioning software with it.

All this rubbish is useless and it's time for it to disappear. Since 
this hype began, our forum has suddenly seen a fivefold increase in 
traffic. Knowledge is being sucked up without permission, put through 
the mincer and usually reproduced incorrectly. There's nothing good 
about it.
