If Meta gets away with this or gets off lightly, I'd love for this to set a future legal precedent for future piracy cases.

Unless they just straight up want to say "Piracy and copyright laws only apply to poor people" in a court of law.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't pirate media. I'm just slowly gathering a collection of AI training data.

Exactly. Of course, I need to make sure the files are appropriate for AI training, so it's imperative that I review the media in its entirety first.

I’ll just spin up an llc and do all of my torrenting for market research

LLCs are plebs. You need a corporation to not be a pleb and it needs to be registered in Delaware.

That isn't hard to do.

One needs high priced lawyers.
