Oh my God 2019 is almost 7 years ago. That’s insane.
Anyway, my point was ever since you uploaded it, it has been on the Internet for anyone to grab. Even before this, anyone competent enough to train an AI or host a competing music service would have been able to download it in the same way that these people did. The only difference is that now there’s a copy being preserved that’s not under the control of an evil corporation.
You have the right to feel any way you want about that, and you’re entirely justified in being uncomfortable with how carelessly it may seem your hard work is being spread around and copied, but personally I think it’s a good thing with very little drawback since it just makes it easier to do something that was already well within the abilities of the entities you’re worried about.
