It isn't? You have to break the law to get it. It's publicly available like your TV is if I were to break into your house and avoid getting shot.

One of the craziest experiences in this "post AI" world is to see how quickly a lot of people in the "information wants to be free" or "hell yes I would download a car" crowds pivoted to "stop downloading my car, just because its on a public and openly available website doesn't make it free"

"Rules for thee, but not for me"

Maybe you have some legalistic point that escapes comprehension, but I certainly consider my house to be much private and the internet public.
