Imagine spending years writing a book for the benefit of others, only to have it downloaded, stripped of it's licensing and given away to others for free and being robbed of compensation for the time you invested.
It sounds like you wrote a book for profit then, not for the benefit of others.
Yes, most people do.
What a very depressing view of human nature you have.
...so doing work and expecting to be compensated for said work is depressing to you? That is Olympic grade mental gymnastics.
