Hmm -- did you say "copyright"?  I wonder what would happen if you sent
them a DMCA takedown notice.  To quote Salvor Hardin, "It's a poor atom 
blaster that doesn't point both ways."  (And there's another Hardin
quote that seems particularly apt when talking about wielding the DMCA:
"Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.")
