Those, who have no idea and especially those that don't care would cause this platform (on Steemit.com domain) to shut down - you like it or not! But that's the sad fact if the majority of members continue to act with ignorance.
So, if you think few bucks built or even just a few cents built with the content that violates someone's copyrights is worth the whole platform to shut down. Keep doing it. In that case, it would happen sooner.
But I didn't get the impression you are a Steemit hater.
