Literally nobody considers this aspect, at all, ever.

Content providers compete with each other, yet all of them think watching something without paying is taking money from the mouths of their babies even when that content is already ad-supported and shown free on OTA (over the air) broadcasts.

Depth of government thinking on this is inversely proportional to depth of content lobbyist pockets.
