I think Anna’s Archives point is mainly that given other jurisdictions don’t care about copyright when it comes to training their LLMs, it’s a major and critical disadvantage for countries that do care about copyright for training purposes.
Given they are trying to get political change, it’s likely they think it’s harder to change the status quo for regular people than it is to change it for AI companies. They are still trying get the copyright duration down to 20 years.
A more cynical take would be that Anna’s Archive wants to be able to make money from companies by giving them access to their archive. Maybe they already have a monetary agreement with companies overseas, and want to do the same in the USA.

Uh, they already train on copyrighted material. This whole “overseas” bogeyman is a misnomer, the boogeyman is domestic.
Copyright being more than 10y is a travesty.
