Copyright infringement is absolutely the moral thing to do in quite a lot of cases. For example, for the preservation of cultural works. Corporations aren't exactly spending their money on proper archives and the people to curate them. Quite the opposite! For example, if some or all of the lawsuits against sites like archive.org are successful then the result could be a mass erasure of cultural works on the scale of the burning of the Library of Alexandria.

But archiving has nothing to do with copyright.

This is such an insane thing to say, I feel like you can't possibly understand what those words mean.

Yes it absolutely does.

No.

I wish the courts feel the same way
