...pretty sure the secretmaker knows that, yeah. The black text is the secret; the red text is what the secret is commenting on.

The thing is, Sturgeon's Law is universal, 90% of what is on Tumblr would make zero money if it was stolen and marketed -- but at the same time, some online artists do get their work bootlegged. There are artists I follow whose stuff has been, say, mass-produced on T-shirts without their consent. So when there are PSAs about sites that genuinely do steal your work, it's not wrong or self-important of anyone to reblog them. Even if your work is never personally affected, maybe the work of one of your followers is at risk. Or one of your followers' followers. Or maybe one of them would have purchased something from that site, unaware that none of the money was going to the artist, and now they won't. It's valuable to get the word out.

The black text is the secret;

And explicitly believes what the red text says. 'I agree this is a dishonest thing for tumblr to do' is exactly the opposite of 'that is not what it says'.

some online artists do get their work bootlegged.

Which has nothing to do with the secret.

It's valuable to get the word out.

About sites and people that actually do steal work. Not chicken little nonsense about sites trying to steal your work because of a misunderstanding of the necessary clauses to make their displaying your work not stealing it.

The secret text says "it's really funny fandom thinks tumblr is after its [various types of art]," as if that's not a phenomenon that happens with any site ever, or as if all the work on tumblr is too terrible to ever be bootlegged. That's what I'm reacting to.
