Don't forget the stripmining of all human knowledge and culture from the 'ethical' AI people didn't stop because they got sued. They're just using third parties to source things, in much the same way their scrapers keep on returning to websites in a wide array of glasses and moustaches when told to go away.
AI people do not, and will not ever care about consent.
