If you're willing to believe the narrative that there's some sort of existential "race to AGI" going on at the moment (I'm ambivalent myself, but my opinion doesn't really matter; if enough people believe it to be true, it becomes true), I don't think that'll realistically stop anyone.
Not sure how exactly the Library of Congress is structured, but the equivalent in several countries can request a free copy of everything published.
Extending that to the web (if it's not already legally, if not practically, the case) and then allowing US companies to crawl the resulting dataset as a matter of national security, seems like a step I could see within the next few years.
