Yes, but does that mean that SO is obligated to share the data with AI companies?

I know that the CC-BY-SA [1] says

No additional restrictions — You may not apply legal terms or technological measures that legally restrict others from doing anything the license permits.

But I don't know if it is relevant here.

It just means others will scrape and push into the Internet Archive (or publish torrents). They aren’t obligated, but they also have little control regardless of gating mechanisms.
