He is not saying "It is wrong to steal."
In the context of this piece, framing this as anything less than "It is completely wrong to steal software and I am only doing it to discover the power of the trojans and their antidotes" is the very minimum, and I still consider that wrong. Absent NO comment that it is morally wrong to steal software, he is proactively encouraging it

"A mysterious guy named Axxo uploads really clean and excellent quality videos, but it’s hard to tell which ones are form the real Axxo and which ones are just labeled Axxo, but are phony or worse.

Guess you didn't read it.
