Please stop!
It's clear that you are not building support for your argument.
You've made your case to the best of your ability and not been
convincing.
But beyond that, this discussion is no longer on topic for
debian-project.
Debian cannot decide what the law is.
We've established that this situation is complicated.
You've proposed various things that someone could do to limit the use of
free software in AI training sets.
Other people have pointed out that may or may not work.
You think it will.
You haven't managed to convince your critics..
We won't know until this gets hashed out in courts.
That's about the level of detail appropriate for debian-project.
Further discussion of this issue at this time on this list does not
serve the community.
