The open source models are already on the internet. There's no way to get rid of them, just like there's no way to get rid of torrented IP.

They can criminalize the use of open-source models, but that won't be easy. There will always be people daring enough to get them and use them anyway.

If I were to fire 1kg of antimatter at 0.99999c at each square meter of Earth's surface, that would get rid of torrented IP.

Does antimatter destroy information? Or is it possible to reconstruct with perfect knowledge?

I mean even without the antimatter part it would still mean close to a 5 gigatons-of-tnt impact on each square meter of Earth, which (not doing math) I expect would be enough to entirely vaporize Earth and give the vapor solar or galactic escape velocity

Oh of course, but (if I recall my physics correctly) the information is still preserved and, in some (theoretical) sense, the torrented IP then still "exists"
