Let 'Em Steal

Liner Notes

The politicians seem quite quick to bow down to our tech overlords and sell us down the river with their 'opt-out' approach. I wonder what is in it for them?

The 'Libraries reduced to ash' refers to how Anthropic destroyed millions of print books to build its AI models: https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/06/anthropic-destroyed-millions-of-print-books-to-build-its-ai-models/

NSFW due to one swear that couldn't be help when recording.

Lyrics

There's new legislation Coming to this nation A mandate for the thieves To take what they please

Who’s going to stop them? No politicians They’re all betrothed To those tech bros

[Chorus] Let ‘em steal, let ‘em steal Let ‘em take what they like Let ‘em steal, let ‘em steal All for AI Let ‘em steal, let ‘em steal Harvest mankind Let ‘em steal, let ‘em steal From you and I Take the past Cut it up Then sell it Back to us

They say you can opt out But that is just a cop out They’ll take what they like Say they didn’t see the sign

All those MPs Have no f**king idea They never wrote one Single pop song

[Chorus]

Seven million books they burned Just to help their machine learn Libraries reduced to ash All in the name of cash

[Chorus]
