- pixl97 4y agoYou seem to misunderstand the term rentseeking. If I incur a cost an expense running a service it is not rent seeking, that's just paying for a service. Now if that violates copyright that's a different law altogether. Now if you paint something once and you want to have a monopoly from everyone event thinking about it for 100 years, we'll, that is rentseeking behavior.
