Musk’s apparent power grab at the Copyright Office fractures the MAGA-tech alliance

What appeared in the beginning was to play power by Elon Musk and the Ministry of Government efficiency (DOGE) to seize the Publishing Rights Office in the United States by removing Donald Trump, and has now led to an amazing reverse results, as it is known that Trump alternatives are not friendly – and even anti -technology.
When Trump launched the Secretary of Congress Carla Hayden last week and recorded publishing rights Shira Berlipler during the weekend, he was seen as another step driven by the Republican Party’s technological wing, especially in light of the copyright office to issue a pre-publishing report that says that some types of generation were not considered fair use. When two men at the Publishing Rights Office came inside the Congress Library carrying messages claiming to be appointed to leadership positions, it seemed that the process of Doug’s acquisition was completed.
But these two men, Paul Perkins and Brian Neves, were not at all, but instead approved by the Maga Pavilion from the Trump Alliance, which aims to identify technology companies.
Perkins, who is now the supposed agency copyright, is one of the 8 -year old warriors in the Ministry of Justice that served in the first fraud cases in the Trump administration. Nevis, Acting Vice Secretary of the Library, is currently working in the office of the Deputy Prosecutor, where he was a lawyer for the House of Representatives Judicial Committee, where he worked with MP Jim Jordan in large technology investigations. Blanche, the Acting Acting Chargé d’Affairs library, who will be their president, is a strong Trump ally who represents him during his criminal trial in Manhattan for the year 2024, and he is now the Deputy Public Prosecutor supervises the side of the Ministry of Justice in Google search treatments. As one of the pressure groups in government affairs said freedomBlanche is “there to install it with technology.”
Blache, Perkins and Nieves are the result of angry pressure during the weekend by the conservative content industry – as a jealousy of its work protected by copyrights like any other media companies – as well as Republican Republican lawyers and lawyersAll of them angered from Silicon Valley in one way or another Trump by launching a person who recently criticized artificial intelligence companies.
Sources talking to freedom Are they convinced that the shooting was a technical game in the technology industry led by Elon Musk and David Sacks
The populists were particularly classified on removing Perlmter from the Copyright Corporation, which happened the next day of the agency Pre -publishing version From its report on the use of copyright -protected materials to train artificial intelligence systems. Sources talking to freedom They are convinced that the launch was a play in the technology industry led by Ellen Musk and the “AI & Crypto CZAR” David Sacks, which aims to eliminate any resistance to artificial intelligence companies using copyrights to train models without having to pay for them.
“You can say, Well, we have to compete with China. No, we do not have to steal content to compete with China. We do not have slaves work to compete with China. “It is a normal argument,” said Mike Davis, head of the Article Three project and anti -monopoly advisor in Trump. freedom. “It is not fair to use under copyright laws to take everyone’s content and make large technology platforms control it. This is the opposite of fair use. This is a violation of copyright.”
It is the rare time when the Maga scientist is consistent with the Democratic Party, which condemned the fire on Hayden and Perlmter, as it is on the Musk-SACKS faction as an instigator.
In a press release, Representative Joe Morel described the report of the hundred excess page, and the third three of a series that the office placed on copyright and artificial intelligence, as “refusal[ing] The efforts of Elon Musk from the rubber staff to extract works from copyright works to train artificial intelligence models. Meanwhile, Senator Ron Widen (t -or -) said, freedom In a statement sent via the email that the president had no power to shoot at Hayden or Permter, “all this seems to be another way to pay Elon Musk and other billionaires of artificial intelligence who supported the Trump campaign.”
The interpretation of the agency for what is or not a fair use has no power to be binding on the courts
Publications such as artificial intelligence report mainly puts how the copyright office explains the copyright law. But the explanation for the agency for what is or the lack of a fair use has no binding force on the courts, and therefore a report like this is one often works as an expert suspension and reference materials. However, the entire artificial intelligence industry is based on a widespread interpretation of the Copyright Law that is currently being tested in the courts – a position to create an urgent need for this type of comments exactly experts.
The artificial intelligence report applies the law of fair use to various types of artificial intelligence training and use, and concluded that although the results may differ from the case of each case separately, “commercial use of vast symptoms of publication -protected rights to produce expressive content compete with them in the current markets, especially as this is achieved through illegal access, exceeding the limits of fair use.” But far from advising advice to take radical measures in response to what the office believes that it violates the rights of the Publishing and Publishing, the report instead states that “government intervention will be premature at this time”, given this Licensing agreements It is made across various sectors.
“Now BROS Tech will steal the copyright for creators for AP profits.”
The unconfirmed nature of the report made the removal of Perlmter made more worrying to the Maga ideology in Trump’s inner circle, who saw this as a clear power, and they were immediately vocal. “Now you’ll steal the creative publishing rights of AP profits,” Davis immediately posted on Truth Social, along with a CBS link on the launch of Perlmter. “This is 100 % unacceptable.”
It is strange, after Davis published The Post, Trump republished it, and Link and All.
None of the alleged appointed from Trump has a particularly relevant background with their new functions – but they are definitely not people, and in general, they are not the type of people who want to give birth to the office in the office. Currently, this is a political victory for the anti -technology people, even if nothing happened. A source familiar with the dynamism between the White House and both sides of the issue of copyright said: “Sometimes when you reach the leadership to get rid of someone, the person who comes after him is not better,” said a source familiar with the dynamic between the White House and both sides of the issue of copyright. “You cannot necessarily name the back and release someone, and so in many cases, I saw people who are pushing out of the door and replacement worse.”
However, the speed of the shooting and the subsequent power struggle emphasized the constitutional crisis raised by Trump’s repeated Independent agency officials Confirm confirmed by Congress. The shooting library, in particular, reaches the past Executive Authority theory It is demanded by the White House and even the most blurry lands. It is legally doubtful whether President Secretary of Congress can by the President, as the library, can a legislative branch agency greatly precede the administrative state. It does not fit precisely In the legal framework in the modern era of federal agencies. (Of course, everything about the law is in turmoil Even where agencies Do The frame is suitable.) Regardless, and The law clearly states The Secretary of the Congress Library – not the President – appoints a copyright record.
Currently, the Congress Library has not received any trend of Congress on how to move forward. The constitutional crisis – One of the many Through the federal government – it is still ongoing.
Elon Musk and Xai did not respond to the comment.
