It's not actually contradictory at all when you consider the root of the issue is about power asymmetry between individual creators and the corporations. Copyright terms were lobbied for, and primarily benefit the large corporations. They're symbolic of corporate overreach, that's why they're unpopular.

Meanwhile, now that the laws are inconvenient for them, tech companies are straight up ignoring labeling their training data to respect IP law. Labeling the data would be expensive, thereby eroding profits. The loss of usable data would also harm the efficacy of their models, and the time spent classifying the data will hamper their iteration time.

The ideas are only dissonant if you are looking at the trees (copyright term, DMCA, right to repair, etc.) and not the forest: which is a class struggle between a few thousand billionaires versus the rest of humanity.
