I can't prove you wrong and I don't think there is any benefit to society when a company with a black box doesn't give back to the community (aka humanity as a whole) and doesn't pay anyone. Copyright may be broken, but the only realistic way to encourage creators is to give them money. We don't live in a utopia, and people need money to eat.

Also, in France and as an individual, if I were to openly torrent all the content of Libgen or Anna's Archive, I would have to spend the rest of my life in jail whereas Zuck can enjoy having more billions with the same behavior.

Some kind of rant: The world is truly fucked right now if such behaviors are rewarded, but at my grand old age of almost 50, I'm starting to move away from all this and it's relaxing: I live a simpler life, I buy from small creators, and I learn whatever I want. I have also gained a lot of time that I can now spend by helping people around me. Life can be fun if you ignore that you'll never be in control of all the bad behaviors around you.
