We didn't seem to mind when Google was doing it back in 1999, or Lycos, Altavista, etc before them... why do we care about the LLM companies doing it now?

I find LLMs extremely useful but I think the difference is that they regurgitate the content (not verbatim) instead of a link to it. This is not unlike how a human might tell their friend about it.

		Google has been regurgitating content right into search results since the very beginning, and they've been providing "synopsis" type of results for over a decade.

Because they have terms of service they have to adhere to. We need laws to be lawful.
