Yes, it seems we do, including what I do with the products someone released with the explicit intent to get paid for it in exchange of others using it. And yes, The artwork you do with the pieces you have is yours. As others pointed out, would you deem collage art or those artists that put together artwork from found objects nonethical as well?

Also not quite the same thing, making art from collages or other materials is telling people what you've done by the very definition of the process. You put "pre-existing" items together to create art.
