Okay okay okay... get this.
Nvidia is getting sued for copyright infringement, specifically related to its use of the books3 dataset right? So right now, their defensive strat seems to be:
*Hey, a library is a library and that includes shadow libraries. Indeed, those so-called "shadow libraries" aren't shadowy at all. They're valid sources of data and information, just like any other public library.*
If, in the course of this lawsuit, Nvidia somehow legally legitimizes shadow libraries? I'm going to laugh my ass off.
