Reddit has initiated a lawsuit against Anthropic for allegedly using its forum data without proper licensing, becoming the first major tech firm to legally challenge an AI model provider. The complaint, filed in Northern California, states that Anthropic's actions breach Reddit's user agreement. Reddit has previously authorized companies like OpenAI and Google to use its data under strict terms, which protect user privacy. Ben Lee, Reddit's legal officer, condemned Anthropic's practices, highlighting the importance of compensating content creators and maintaining user trust.
Reddit's lawsuit states that Anthropic's unauthorized use of data is unlawful, breaching the site's user agreement and exploiting content for profit without consent.
Ben Lee emphasized Reddit's stance against commercial exploitation by entities like Anthropic and the importance of respecting user privacy and interests.
