The part that gets me is 24,000 fake accounts and 16 million API calls. That's not a side project, that's a coordinated operation. At some point "distillation" stops being a technical term and starts being a very polite word for something else.
Hard to see how legislation fixes this though. If the models are good enough to be worth stealing, they're accessible enough to be stolen. That's not a China problem, that's a business model problem.
Maybe that's why Anthropic cut off the Max Plan from API calls. It was a no-no until last week when it became not possible anymore. Needless to say, my API costs or more than $200 a month now. Glad they ramped up sonnet to 4.6 and 1/5 the cost of Opus.
