That part is not what this preliminary jugement is about. The torrenting part is going to go to an actual trial. This part was about the Authors’ claim that the act of training AI itself violated copyright, and this is what the judge has found to be incorrect.
Facebook (Meta) torrented TBs from Libgen, and their internal chats leaked so we know about that, and IIRC they’ve been sued. Maybe you’re thinking of that case?
But I thought they admitted to torrenting terabytes of ebooks?

Billions of dollars, and they can’t afford to buy ebooks?
FaceBook did but technically downloading (leeching) isn’t illegal but distributing (seeding) is and they did not seed.
