updated December 2023	Statement of the The Omnigma Organization on the rampant theft of works put online
Our websites contain only a small fraction of the intellectual and artistic works created by our organization. And, here are the reasons . . . There is an ever increasing problem with theft of all types of creative works put online. The biggest problem is large corporations who violate intellectual property rights with impunity. Works created by artists and authors are being stolen in massive quantities, a problem exacerbated and facilitated by recently developed automated methods. Large Language Models and Artificial Intelligences of large corporations are 'scraping' the internet, scooping up the works other people have worked hard to develop. This is morally and ethically intolerable. Many unethical corporations involved in developing these Artificial Intelligences say they are not stealing, just viewing. But, they are, indeed, taking and incorporating those stolen works and generating illegal 'derivative' works as the output of Artificial Intelligences. And, that stilted and unoriginal output is made available to third parties without permission, or payment or crediting those that created the original works. As a result, to prevent the unauthorized use of their works, the artisans and authors of our organizations, and of others, have decided to make their most important works unavailable online to thwart those that would steal them. There is an additional problem. There are many huge sites that publicly serve media works of all types. Sometimes they have the permission of those that create them. But, many works are put there without permission. This is blatent theft. Yet, millions of people enjoy the benefit of accessing those works and it seems that there is little that can be done to stop the plunder.
