Artists have rights over their work, and no amount of whataboutisms will change that.
HOLY SHIT DUDE GOOD POINT GUESS WE SHOULD DELETE THE WHOLE FUCKING COMMUNITY
What exact rights though? A right to sell pixels or a right to burn a painting after someone bought it?
Unfortunately they sign over most of those rights to their preferred publisher.
There are always indie platforms they can publish to though
