There's precedent for "whatever you can get away with" in tech companies, but establishing a culture of that at the start of this new big change could end up undesirable for most people.
For example, it could relieve demand for more legal and sustainable ways, until it's too late.
(Look at the history of digital entertainment media piracy and DRM and legislation, for example. Or look at the history of software piracy, where some big companies seem to actually want their product to be pirated, partly because it builds a bigger moat against competitors, and they can legally strongarm some of those pirates later.)
