Well, other than the infrastructure they got from illegally routing millions of paying customers' requests through Anthropic's Opus 4.8 in a distillation attack...
Anthropic infringed the copyright of basically every author on the planet: <a href="https://www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/
No real reason to respect any terms they might want to impose. Besides, if you want to break TOS, just have an agent do it; "everyone" running these things agrees there's no corporate or moral liability for what your AI does.
I'm not defending their actions, but we should be clear about where the law currently stands: Anthropic was found to infringe because of the torrenting, not because of the training.
