It's just a common tactic to draw attention to the weakness of the company and damage to the company's interests, and it's not because people can't speak out at all. Although it is a bit biased to say this, my disgust towards these big companies will not change.

I've seen this quote repeated over and over these past few weeks, while noone brothers to actually explain what it means and why. This article is no different unfortunately.
Companies selling software and other digital goods tend to pull back parts of their library for all kinds of reasons, which in turn takes these goods away from paying customers who thought they bought something. Since the company defends itself by saying they never bought those goods outright, customers defend themselves by saying that if paying for it isn't buying, then not paying isn't stealing.
I'm interested in where I can hear this explanation from the Noone Brothers.
