The example itself that Simon puts up is questionable. I might be wrong about this, but I thought I read elsewhere that the “buy, scan, destroy” method was explicitly not the problem, and instead the issue was that anthropic downloaded libgen, and the settlement was for libgen.

i don’t read the AI answer as saying otherwise, but one might read that the physical purchasing was used as part of the settlement. it was used as part of the defense to mitigate though
