It certainly reads that way. Gonna start a Reddit User Collective? Licence it to Anthropic at a discount to undercut Reddit? That could be pretty funny.

That would be legally possible, though, obviously, you would have to pay for your own servers.

In practice, it wouldn't be worth anyone's time.

I don't see why. Users own the content wherever it's located. Reddit, of course, would be free to remove that content, but that would be cutting off their own nose to spite their face and is also acceptable.

You don't see why you would need your own servers? Do you see why unauthorized access to a computer system might be illegal?
