I assume the folks who are concerned about their privacy could petition the court to keep their data confidential.
I occasionally use ChatGTP and I strongly object to the court forcing the collection of my data, in a lawsuit I am not named in, due merely to the possibility of copyright infringement. If I’m interested in petitioning the court to keep my data private, as you say is possible, how would I go about that?
Of course I haven’t sent anything actually sensitive to ChatGTP, but the use of copyright law in order to enforce a stricter surveillance regime is giving very strong “Right to Read” vibes.
