  No, I've absolutely seen that argument made online as justification for music and movie piracy, many times, for many years. People rationalizing aren't mental giants. Piracy is generally by people who want free stuff. Not by philosophers who arrived at piracy through some line of reasoning other than wanting free stuff. The dialogue in the space is what you'd expect.
