Volume difference with older crawlers?

Oh, I assume the USA has similar laws. The US has easier provision for class-action lawsuits I think (they are - I gather - difficult to take in the UK and Ireland), and many of these AI-enshitifiers are based there.

It just needs a bunch of web content providers to get together, find a lawyer willing to take this on, then advertise the action to recruit even more web content providers who are being abused and then go after some of these awful AI-enshitifier people and give them a good spanking in the courts (and earn the lawyer a nice sum, and maybe a little bit for the abused each).
