I don't think they belong to the company any more than the words you read belong to you
Exactly, this reads like hysteria. If you've placed your words on a public website, it's a shocked Pikachu moment when someone (or in the case of an AI-in-training something) reads those words. It's basic fair use.
If someone put up a billboard with some text on it and then got angry whenever someone else read it I would question their sanity. Even if that "someone" was the Google street view car.
Yeah, I don't really see the fuss about people's content being used to train AIs. It's not really any different from a human reading your content and using their brain to make something similar.
There's a surprising number of people who seem to think LLMs contain a database of everything it's trained with, and that it just spits out snippets from there. There are also lots of very vocal artists against image generation models who claim that these 5-10 GB models contain all their copyrighted art, claiming that the models just create collages from existing images.
People simply don't understand how these things work.
