Copyright infringement is in most cases tortious rather than criminal.
This clearly meets the scale requirements for criminality.
It's not really scale so much as circumvention; what got criminalized was circumventing protection mechanisms which AFAICT Anthropic didn't do
That is not the only thing that is criminalised. This clearly violates 506(a)(1)(A): copyright infringement for commercial advantage is criminal.
