Lol why do they have to do things in the most cartoonishly evil way?

Seeding is worse legally.

So, the minimally illegal way to stiff the people sharing with them. They continue to innovate in the age-old field of bastardry.

After doing terrible crap for so long without much, if any, punishment leads to brazen and absurd tactics...

Soon I expect something akin to them running their own marketplace scams or similar fraud just because it's so profitable vs expense/penalty.

As you say, it's like a bad caricature of the stereotype.
