Ah, I was unfamiliar with criminal penalties for copyright infringement. Could you go ahead and link me to the relevant US Code text that provides for such penalties?

This happens to be the one under which Kite would fall (since they're infringing copyright for "commercial advantage").
Well I feel old as shit now. Back when DVDs and VHS tapes were a thing we were all indoctrinated by a big blazing "FBI Warning" of the penalties up to 5 years imprisonment and $250,000 fine.
