June was a very busy month for all-things-copyright, including Congressional hearings, publishers suing Google over ads for infringing books, the second anniversary of the #CCB, and so much more.

Instead, the Chamber of Progress supports a GAI “hide the ball” ecosystem—one that is neither responsible or transparent. https://bit.ly/3XcKiG6
