alt Hacker NewsIn the real world, leaving booby traps out that can harm others including the innocent are a liability and regularly a crime in itself.

It's Antropic defrauding people here, the person using it for fighting anti-social behavior (or even a troll doing the anti-social behavior themselves) isn't guilty of it.
if someone is trying to use LLM tools in a project that explicitly forbids the use of LLM tools, they are not innocent.
if someone is blinding slurping up content to feed to LLMs, without checking to see if a particular source is OK with that, they are arguably not innocent either.
Neither situation is analogous to a booby-trapped shotgun door blowing off the face of a would-be burglar.
This is a lot closer to a painting of a poop emoji than a booby trap.

Whose law? Good luck trying to summon a random GitHub user to a court within your jurisdiction.

Perhaps roughly as long as the law turns a blind eye to AI corps flagrantly violating the attribution requirements of software licenses that apply to their training data, as well as basically ignoring other copyright requirements at scale. Fair use, my eye.
