The UK has a data protection agency? Does the UK know? Have they been asleep for the past 20 years?
I’m not sure why it would be any different from how this is treated with search engines. Both scrape massive amounts of openly available data and make it available in some form. Any training data or information that a model could potentially spit out is already available through a search engine’s index.
