(Violation of HN Terms & Conditions || Violation of copyright) != "bad stuff"

(Violation of HN Terms & Conditions || Violation of copyright) = Potential penalty

(Violation of HN Terms & Conditions || Violation of copyright) - Potential penalty = Unsane Profits

Isn’t that basically how societies work? Different penalties, but some kind of penalties enforcing the boundaries of that society?

Not everyone agree over some things being bad

Does profit outweigh the penalty?
