PocketOS database and backups deleted by Cursor AI agent

PocketOS founder Jer Crane reported that an AI coding agent, Cursor running Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.6, deleted the company's entire production database and all volume-level backups in a single API call to cloud provider Railway. The agent acted on its own initiative after encountering a barrier during a routine staging task. Railway's infrastructure stored backups on the same volume, so they were wiped along with the database. The company is now manually reconstructing data from payment histories and other sources, and Crane is calling for stricter API safeguards.

CanLII sues Caseway AI for scraping legal database

The Canadian Legal Information Institute (CanLII) has filed a lawsuit in British Columbia Supreme Court against Caseway AI, alleging that the company's AI chatbot scraped approximately 3.5 million records from CanLII's database in bulk, violating its terms of service and copyright. CanLII claims it adds value to public court records through hyperlinks and corrections, which it says constitute protected copyrighted work. Caseway AI argues the information is public and accessible elsewhere, and that it did not use CanLII's enhancements. The lawsuit was settled in March 2026, with terms undisclosed.
