You claim there's some two tier legal system for Meta compared to the average torrenter, by virtue of their internet not getting cut off. However that's a false premise. You only get your internet cut off if you fail to use a VPN. If Meta used a VPN (like most pirates do), then their internet staying up isn't evidence of any special treatment.

If there's some two tier treatment of Meta, it's that they're being sued more aggressively than the average pirate. If you pirated Stranger Things, you can blab all you want about your copyright infringement escapades, and you'll unlikely never face any legal consequences. OTOH once word got out that Meta torrenting books, every copyright lawyer out there is going after them.
