Well the legality seems to be something you can ignore when you have billions of dollars in VC money to fritter around.

It certainly didn't stop them hoovering up music and movies, and the owners of those have a lot more power than any of us do.

Tech is fast, the law is slow, and you can make many times the cost of lawyers and fines by the time anybody gets around to telling you to stop it.
