Does YouTube allow massive scraping like this in their ToS?

Probably not.

Who cares at this point? No one is stopping ML sets from being primarily pirated. The current power is effectively dismantling copyright for AI related work.

Anyone who has a shred of integrity. I'm not a fan of overreaching copyright laws, but they've been strictly enforced for years now. Decades, even. They've ruined many lives, like how they killed Aaron Swartz.

But now, suddenly, violating copyright is totally okay and carries no consequences whatsoever because the billionaires decided that's how they can get richer now?

If you want to even try to pretend you don't live in a plutocracy and that the rule of law matters at all these developments should concern you.

I can’t imagine why you’d let the FBI off the hook
