No more than I had a problem with Napster bullying a music industry built on overcharging consumers and underpaying artists. Or Netflix for steering into the skid of online streaming rather than joining a useless fight to stop downloading.

These industries are evolving at a ripping pace with advent of the internet and smartphones/apps. Don't have a lot of sympathy for outdated industries trying to squeeze markets and governments.
