alecm<p><strong>A nuanced “Global South” take by @nwbrownboi re: LibGen, Copyright &amp; AI + contrast from @greg_jenner &amp; @prof_alice_roberts (all Threads) HT @dsearls</strong></p><p>Quoted with links &amp; refs to an <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/03/libgen-meta-openai/682093/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Atlantic article</a>; punch quote:</p><blockquote><p>Where was this outrage when students &amp; researchers in the Global South needed these books to study, work, and build a future? AI isn’t the first thing to challenge your control over knowledge. It’s just the first time you’ve noticed.</p></blockquote><p><a href="https://www.threads.net/@nwbrownboi/post/DHb4c4RSuZk" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Quoth Shrey</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>OK I am about to drop a really hot, nuanced take on Meta torrenting LibGen. I recognise this is a sensitive subject and to be clear – I dont approve of the torrenting. But there is a much broader point about LibGen that you – yes, you, a Western reader are not seeing. I ask you to read the rest of this in good faith. (1/6)</p><p>LibGen wasnt built for piracy – it was built for access. Created in 2008 (17 years ago, long before AI) by Russian scientists, it served students &amp; researchers in India, Africa, Iran – places where Western paywalls kept knowledge locked away. You shouldnt need a shadow library to learn. But in these places – you did. And now, the same archive is fueling AI models that Westerners suddenly find very concerning. (2/6)</p><p>LibGen was never about theft it was about survival. It gave access to knowledge that academia locked away. But now that AI companies scraped it? Now its a crisis? Where was this outrage when students &amp; researchers in the Global South needed these books to study, work, and build a future? AI isnt the first thing to challenge your control over knowledge. Its just the first time youve noticed. (3/6)</p><p>For decades, Western publishers profited off knowledge hoarding. Now AI is absorbing books, and suddenly the institutions that never cared about access are crying theft. The gatekeepers are losing power, but that doesnt mean the people are winning. You ignored the fight over open knowledge – until AI came for your books. (4/6)</p><p>LibGen shattered paywalls. AI could be the next great knowledge revolutionor the final enclosure. That choice isnt up to publishers anymore. But it could be up to you. Will you demand open-source AI, knowledge for all? Or will you only fight for access after its been locked away from you, too? (5/6)</p><p>The problem isnt AI – its who controls it. AI could be an open-source library, crediting &amp; compensating authors, making knowledge truly accessible instead of locked in corporate models. (Some models are working on citations.) But that requires breaking the cycle of extraction. Thats not a fantasy – its just a choice we havent made yet. AI could be another gatekeeper, or it could be a bridge to something better. I know which one I want.

everton137<p>These days, talking to my partner, we discussed why many immigrants and refugees, in several situations, seem to have a more fearless attitude than those who grew up in a country like Germany. Few understand the extent of our constant contact with violence and how it shapes our perception of the world - whether as individuals or in our relationships with our families and friends. Perhaps they only know the surface of what it's like to live in such an unequal society, where this reality is imposed on us from birth. And in the end, people from countries like ours will always be reduced to stereotypes. And this is true for all of us who grew up in the global south, regardless of social class and possible differences in opportunity.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Inequality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Inequality</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/brazil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brazil</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>germany</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/courage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>courage</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/globalsouth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>globalsouth</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/globalnorth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>globalnorth</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/fear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fear</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/europe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>europe</span></a></p>
