That is incorrect. Anthropic paid $1.5 billion in compensation to copyright holders for use of their content in training data. OpenAI pays hundreds of millions per year across 150+ licensing deals for access to copyrighted data. Meta and Alphabet have similar arrangements.
Under the settlement, Anthropic was forced to delete the pirated data they were training on.
Chinese labs can still train on pirated data. I doubt the Chinese models operate under similar licensing agreements.
