See my edit. You own the copyright to your work but you do not own ① facts about your work, or ② facts contained in your work. The creators of reference works, for example, cannot assess a royalty fee from people who learn information from those reference works.

And there is no „robots.txt“ to block LLM training scrapers.

robots.txt is consulted by all manner of automated tools, not just search-engine indexing.
