It is unilateral. They have no contract with Google. Google is expected to fight back. I use various hardened Firefox forks on all my devices and mostly Nextpipe for YT, so I don't much care, but that's the background.

Meta Humiliated in Court Over Claims It Mass-Downloaded 2,300 Pirated X-Rated Movies to Train Its AI
TLDR: Meta now faces lawsuit, alleged to have systematically torrented copyrighted porn, likely for Ai training. Meta's defense arguing the torrenting were done by rogue employees having a wank was not accepted by the judge because of keyword<->IP range patterns suggesting systematic scraping.
IMO, the funny / sad thing is that it's the torrenting that got them. Not the, IDK, scraping of every human work ever put onto the internet for the explicit act of producing derivatives, even in cases where the original author has indicated that they don't want that thing. No, no, it's the torrenting that's devil's work.
