I'm just gonna point out that "IF YOU DIDN'T WANT YOUR WORK USED WITHOUT CREDIT THEN YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE PUT IT ON A PUBLIC WEBSITE, SWEETIE" is victim-blaming bullshit, just like "If you didn't want to be murdered then you shouldn't have chosen to live in that town!" or "If you didn't want to be raped then you shouldn't have worn that top!" or "If you didn't want to be robbed then you shouldn't have worn that purse!" or "If you didn't want to be kidnapped then you shouldn't have been outside!" or "If you didn't want to be drugged then you shouldn't have went to the bar!" or-

Point is "if you didnt want X then you shouldnt have done Y" is a bad phrase and people should stop using it.
