Lemme see if I get this:

If I copy your shit as my own, that's plagiarism and it's bad.

But when I copy everyone's shit and run it through a mystery box that rearranges it until it barely makes sense, that's futuristic technology.

And if I take your shit and sell it, that's copyright violation and it's bad.

But when I make a place for people to post their shit and I just sell *access* to it so the mystery box people can have it, that's a viable business model.

Makes perfect sense.
