I like that analogy. I'll make it more tenuous with - "I took a copy of your album collection without your permission, ripped them to MP3, played them so much everyone is sick of them. but you've still got all the original CD's you don't even use, so no problem right?"
On this tangent, IP ownership for deep learning models is interesting - how to you prove (in court) someone has/hasn't copied model/stolen a training set? If you fed someone else's training/model into your system, how easy is it to prove? Will we see the equivalent of map 'trap streets' in trained CNN models?
Except Facebook let them take a copy of the album collection, albeit for a different use case, but it was allowed nonetheless. That doesn't absolve CA in any way, but should make us wary of people we willingly give our "album collections" - they will use them to make money, and what they allow people do with them can easily be things we don't agree with, but didn't have the imagination to think of when we signed the EULA.
