Further, some authors may never even find out the lawsuit is happening. The court’s suggested notification scheme “would require class claimants to themselves notify other potential rightsholders,” groups said, overlooking the fact that it cost Google $34.5 million “to set up a ‘Books Rights Registry’ to identify owners for payouts under the proposed settlement” in one of the largest cases involving book authors prior to the AI avalanche of lawsuits.
If you’re an author, please use this database to see if you could qualify for that sweet GenAI lawsuit money.
I have never ever ever in my life asked someone to blaze my posts.

So much of the world’s “riches” came from Latin America that it really makes the mind dizzy. You see all those palaces in Austria and you would think they are as far from Bolivia as possible and then you remember that the Austrian Habsburgs ruled the Spanish Empire and partook of the loot of the silver and gold from the Americas. You see the cuisine of Europe, Asia and Africa completely changed by American crops to the point that many don’t even remember where they came from. Silver from Potosí found its way from China to Sweden. All the world was enriched, directly or not, while the Americas were plundered. When you really realize the scale of it, the entire line of history bends around it.
