> Google's privacy policy, for example, lets them claim rights over every piece of IP you post on the internet without protecting it behind a paywall

This is a nonsense. They added a disclaimer basically warning that LLMs might learn some of your personal data from the public web, because that’s part of the training data. A privacy policy is not a contract that you agree to, it’s just a notice of where/when your data is handled.

Google it. They're just laundering it through their ai first

No there’s no legal basis for any of this that even begins to make sense. It’s nothing but a bad-faith reading. Here’s the phrase in question:

“we use publicly available information to help train Google’s AI models”

That’s it.

The point being that such public information might include personal data about you and that’s fair game, it falls outside of the privacy policy. It’s not a novel claim, just a statement of fact.

You agree to their privacy policy, and they can change the privacy policy. But if you have the model and don’t interact with them, then you don’t need to agree to future revisions because you aren’t interacting with them again (unless you want newer versions)

If I buy a TV, and the store has me sign a receipt that says I agree to their privacy policy by shopping there. Then that’s fine. I don’t need to agree to any future revisions unless I go back to buy more electronics from them.
