Hive account@shadowspub if the content is on a public forum, giving attribution is going according to CC best practices and news and other media organizations do this ALL THE TIME. You must not be familiar with CC and I suggest you read it. Unless the rights to the content are specified, which they weren't, attribution is THE best practice.

What I did was legal. The accessing of paid content behind a paywall, without paying, by Hive account@steemcleaners is not legal. Thus Hive account@steemcleaners broke the law to provide evidence against a lesser offense. I guess my point isn't comprehensible by lesser minds who pay no attention to the law. Stop using left logic. Your point is invalid.
