    I support piracy but just be nitpicky, data theft is absolutely a thing, hackers do that all the time and you could argue piracy is somewhat data theft or intellectual property theft. Half the internet is up in arms about AI’s use of intellectual property without compensation or consent.

        So they claim to own it now when they didn’t own it before and they didn’t pay or otherwise compensate for it. That sounds an awful lot like theft
