Wow. You call copyright infringement "stealing" (which it is not) but give the company a pass for removing the content they paid for (which is much closer to "stealing").

Really hard to take this comment in good faith

So does the US government. So does the EU court system.

I didn't give the company any passes. What are you talking about?

What you're reacting to isn't my comment.


No, the US government calls it "copyright infringement". If it was called "stealing", it would fall under the general theft laws. Instead, it has its own body of law.
