First, it seems to me that if there is an implied contract between TV viewers and TV broadcasters to view commercials, then there is also an implied contract between readers and magazine/newspaper publishers to view their adds because "otherwise you couldn't get the" article "on an ad-supported basis". So don't go skipping those adds:) (Of course, deep linking at news sites violates the same principle.)
Second, Mr. Kellner desires to broaden the definition of stealing, just as the record producers did. This is a powerful method for generating sympathy. For example people have broadened the work "killing" when they say that American drug companies are "killing" people in third world countries by denying them AIDS drugs. If someone bottles a cure for aging and only sells 10 bottles for high prices, is he "killing" the other 100 million people on the planet that die of age related illnesses?
Both the implied contract idea and the broadened definition of stealing idea are designed to limit the consumer. Let the consumer beware!
Two slow moving objects colliding can generate small fragments that shoot off at high speed. Imagine two trains colliding with daffy duck tied onto one train. Even if the relative speed of the trains is only 10 mph, it is possible that some daffy guts will squirt out at a high speed perpendicular angle.
Are there any numbers for the distribution of particles over speed, mass, size, and height?

It may be wrong, but it's not dead wrong:
