Not a new problem.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
People have talked a lot about how this is morally wrong.
It's more morally pretty wrong for a long time.
Copyright complaints shouldn't get settled by a "report them instant action," model. Not having a fair hearing in a court of law, is a serious weakness in our modern day legal system.
Jurists legitimately have not figured out how to solve this problem. Copyright & patent law when social graphs spread IP at light-speed is a real conundrum.
But it's not a new problem.

Which is directly opposed to the United State's interests.
If you're working in the foreign policy apparatus of the US Government and watching this... the fact Alphabet is projecting Russian soft power is a big big problem.
