The idea that anyone person or entity should be able to 'own' information about curing cancer is such a moral abyss.
When someone talks about "stealing" in this context, they are revealing that they care more about their right to rent seek from the poor than basic human decency.

No one has cured cancer yet. If you steal from one of these institutions, what you are stealing definitely isn’t a cancer cure.
