Copyright infringement is never legal. Yes, it's often not enforced until someone complains, but there is a difference between enforcement and legality.

> TL;DR it's not a crime if nobody complains.

It is a crime even if nobody complains, you're just not getting caught or reprimanded. It is possible to hurt someone without getting caught. That doesn't make it okay.
