"it's ok if a rich person or company does it, but not if someone less rich does it" is equally blatant hypocrisy that is worse for society.

What is the relevance to this case? Isn’t this site less rich than Roblox and their hosting copyrighted items and they’re not getting punished.

Or am I misreading the situation?

But it is okay if not-rich people do it. I have "pirated" and otherwise flaunted copyright my whole life, along with many millions more. Nobody has ever come at me for it. Enforcement of any sort against common people is exceedingly rare. For a long time it was only corporations who took copyright seriously, and now that even they are flaunting copyright people such as yourself suddenly pretend that the little guy has to care.

Well I don't! Copyright is a farce and I continue to wipe my butt with it.

		This thread of comments seems to be getting somewhat off topic. I believe the point being made by open3dlabs is that copyright is basically a pay to play system for corporations which is obviously unjust. You're right that copyright isn't enforced on individuals, but DMCA is definitely enforced on small content sharing sites which have little to no recourse compared to large corporations that can flagrantly break the law.

		> But it is okay if not-rich people do it Are you sure you replied to the right post? You're agreeing with me here. The post I replied to is the one suggesting that us little people doing this is at least as bad as rich people and rich corps doing it.
