Good news: the Govt. has decided to pause its potential relaxation of copyright laws to facilitate the theft & scraping of 'protected' content by AI/LLM 'research'.

Less good: after a consultation which largely demonstrated significant support for leaving copyright as is, Labour is still thinking how it can accommodate Big Tech's demand to be allowed to steal information with impunity.

So copyright remains in play, leaving uncertainty for anyone depending on its rules.
