European regulators just launched an antitrust investigation into how Google trains its AI models. The focus? Whether the tech giant is improperly scraping publisher content and YouTube videos without fair compensation or consent.
This raises bigger questions for our space. If centralized platforms can freely harvest data to build proprietary AI systems, what does that mean for creator rights and data ownership? The Web3 community has long championed decentralized data control and fair value distribution. Now traditional regulators are catching up to these concerns.
Watching how this unfolds could set precedents for AI development across the board. The battle over who owns training data isn't just a Big Tech problem anymore.

Google has hit a snag this time; the issue of data ownership should have been addressed long ago.

Google has been caught again. In theory, this regulation might have some effect this time, but I bet five dollars it will still end up being a muddle.

Google is now being targeted by the EU. Nice, the traditional giants are finally starting to care about data ownership.

Google is in trouble again, this time the European Union is targeting its data crawling tactics. Someone should have regulated these tech giants long ago.
