I'll say this: If Meta and Facebook are prosecuted and domains seized in the same way pirate sites are, for Meta's use of illegimately obtained copyrighted material for profit, then I'll believe that anti-piracy laws are fair and just.

That will never happen.

We live under a two-tier "justice" system.

"There is a group the law protects but does not bind. And there is a group the law binds but does not protect."

Even if they do I won't believe copyright beyond attribution is just, but it's unlikely to.
