      They knowingly violated copyright. Sorry, can’t excuse them

      You can if you aren’t a piece of shit who equates legality with morality.

      If they want to change the regulations, then work on that

      Notably, you have not produced any actionable suggestion for doing so.

      If they want to change the regulations, then work on that. Blatantly violating them and challenging copyright holders doesn’t help anyone.

      Have you studied history? Non-violently violating unjust laws is a means of working on that and striving to help others. Those responding as you have are no more helpful than you think those you criticize have been. If anything they’re less so as their support may have been of greater help in changing things instead of letting them worsen.

        The entirety of MLK’s civil rights career was basically breaking segregation laws lol.

        Copyright violations are such victimless crimes and yet people still get upset when some billion dollar company misses out on $20 worth of sales.
