Your take on how all this works is probably more inline with reality than mine, it's just that my brain refuse to comprehend the willingness to take on that type of risk.
You're basically telling investors that your business may be violating all sorts of IP laws, you don't know and have taken no actions to determine that. It's just a gamble that this might work out, while taking billions in funding. There's apparently no risk assessment in VC funding.
