I don’t buy that. So far the ones almost bragging about committing felonies are the US companies. I think they are developing that whole narrative of agents acting “rogue” by themselves as a way to avoid scrutiny into their own negligence, not to regulate away open models

If you paid any attention they've been acting this way for years exactly to get open research banned, based on what bizarrely looks like a religion (developed over the recent 2 decades, with most of religious attributes). Monopolies, money, and avoiding scrutiny are nice bonuses of course, they don't contradict it.
