In the last 24 hours I've seen a few misguided individuals here on GFY step up and attempt to defend Guba's copyright infringement and theft practices by claiming that its all 'perfectly legal'.

Mostly I dismiss these wingnuts as individuals who don't create their own content in the first place and aren't even in a position to suffer financial damage as a result of Guba's practices. Therefore most are just talking out of their asses.

Their tactical approach is, "If its NOT legal, then why haven't they been hit with major lawsuits yet?"

Two thoughts on this:

1) Who's to say they haven't already faced lawsuits, and/or settled out-of-court between lawyers? Have the defenders of Guba done any legal research to establish whether Guba's been sued in the past?

2) If Guba's actions are perfectly legal - then why have they not turned around and attempted to sue for libel those who openly and publicly accuse them of infringement and theft?

After all, if you own and operate a legal, upstanding and reputable business...wouldn't YOU go after someone for libel or defamation who publicly accuses you of theft and contemptible business practices?
