Yes it is. Although I personally have far less moral objections to it.
To elaborate:
OpenAI scraped data without permission, and then makes money from it.
Deepseek then used that data (even paid openai for it), trained a model on that data, and then releases that model for anyone to use.
While it's still making use of "stolen data" (that's a whole semantics discussion I won't get into right now), I find it far more noble than the former.

I skimmed the article, but couldn't find the specifics.
So... How can you possibly justify that start button?
