If, like me, you just wanted to know what the Bob Dylan defence is:

"Meta's response in this case seems to be that a powerful technology corporation should not be held to the same standard as everyone else for illegal conduct."

The authors mocked Meta for raising what they call "the Bob Dylan defense" of its torrenting, citing song lyrics from "Sweetheart Like You" that say, "Steal a little and they throw you in jail / Steal a lot and they make you king."
