Everything is allowed to happen until there's a lawsuit over it. A lawsuit requires a plaintiff, who can only sue over the damage suffered by the plaintiff, so taking a little value from a lot of people is a way to succeed in business without getting sued.

Could a class action suit be the solution?

I've no idea if it could be valid when it comes to OpenAI, but it does seem to be a general concept designed to counter wrongdoers who take a little value from a lot of people?

NY Times has sued: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/27/business/media/new-york-t...

The crazy thing is that there hasn't been an injunction to make them stop.
