Extracting information from the internet that is freely available isn't exactly stealing content. Haven't you ever copied something from Wikipedia? Why would Wikipedia even exist if people can't use and share its content?
You really don’t see a difference between a single user citing wiki, vs a billion dollar company going to great lengths to squeeze every cent they can out of everyone involved when looking up information?
