If you're talking about Bezos, all of their wealth was made after they got married. The news can say it's "his wealth" but it always belonged to both of them. It's not "taking half his wealth," it's splitting their co-owned assets.

An online service denying access to a movie you bought is just them acting on their right to do so because you never had a non-revocable license to use it. It was always their property. In both cases, people don't appreciate that what they feel is theirs isn't really theirs until it gets taken away. That's the whole problem.
