Also, they have been on YouTube for a long time. They have published their views and wt did not stop them. But wt owns the copyright and now for whatever reason wt wants enforcement.

Thinking about the end of the Watchtower
by JeffT infirst, a word about the watchtower’s financial position: nobody (outside the watchtower organization) knows.
the wtbs is not required to disclose its finances, and doesn’t.
we can speculate, but that is all we are doing.

Let's say hypothetically that wt lost all property and money -like in Russia. Would that be the end of JW movement? Never. The nation of 7 million or more JW true believers don't need the wt corporations to exist, neither does the gb nor the organizational structure that leads JW. They will rebuild and restructure and use other means to govern and expand the movement. JW are not going to loose faith and start believing in other things if the wt as it is known today has to work out of a basement or a garage. WT leadership is going to push forward no matter what happens until the movement is vindicated or destroyed.

That doesn't make it moral though. -SL
Based on your thinking then, because you say so, it shouldn't be moral that the authorities stop people that don't like you from borrowing and using your car whenever they feel like it without your permission because throughout history, the powerful and the wealthy have used the law to control and step on the masses. And by the same token it should also be moral for people to steal and borrow other people's property as long it is based on personal moral standards. -What do I know, I only figured that it is wrong to take something that does not belong to you, besides it being highly unlawful.
In other words, it may not be moral to enforce copyright laws when wt owns the copyright.

There is a common denominator in almost 100 percent of all terrorist incidents -Islam. Nothing against people, very nice middle eastern people but when a religion is a terrorist making factory...

they are indeed breaching the Copyright laws
If that is the case, besides YouTube taking them down, a Court could impose monetary damages and enjoin them from using the material again. But that has to be decided in a legal forum should they challenge the copyright owner.
Mike and Kim are doing their best to denounce such practices.
If they break copyright laws or any other laws, the Courts have the power and authority to stop them - unless God intervenes in their behalf.

God has no place in this discussion. This is about legal technicalities.
Dubstepped, all of my posts on this thread focus on law except the one you reference which addresses comments such as yours which expressed gratification at losses suffered by the wt resulting from copyright infringement in the form of defending their property from people that feel angry for example at them.
people like you cower because you're afraid,
I can only speak for myself and the reason I try to obey God is because mostly the things that he forbids hurts others or myself. I also experience satisfaction and a feeling of peace and relief in my soul. I don't fear that God will punish me. I try to obey out of love. All it takes is the ransom, a ceremonial wash and God forgives but harm done cannot be undone. Also, God is my avenger; I look to him for justice and satisfaction and it is to him that I plead my case and he can do whatever it takes to bring me the relief that I wait for from him.

This thread is about M&K being shut down based upon wt copyright infringement. If that is a lie and they are being shut down for other reasons or toses maybe this thread needs to be taken down by Simon.

What is the WT's current stance on the age of the earth?
by popcorn_eater inthe reason i ask is i remember reading quite recently, in i think an "awake" mag about creation, that other churches confuse people by insisting on young earth creationism, which causes people to lose their faith.
the magazine was going off on groups and churches who insist on teaching science that conflicts with the bible (....).
i thought the wt was a proponent of this young earth creationism as well.
