People here will say you're a thief and a scumbag, while at the same time be doing the exact same thing you're describing + worse with shady billing practices. So here might not be the best place to ask.

It's technically stealing, but can you actually get in trouble for it? No.

Is anyone going to sue you? Unless you're making a ton of money, which makes a lawsuit even worth it, No.

There are a handful of honest webmasters with good business practices, and a majority who have benefited from stolen "user uploaded" content, unethical business practices, shady linking practices and cookie stuffing, popups, crossbills, malware, spamming etc etc etc etc

It's just the way the industry is, people hit it hard and milk as much as they can from it because the writing is on the wall with where the industry is and where it's going


Take from that what you will.
