With profound apologies to Altova, I should have said Stylus Studio.  No
excuse, just operator error.

And the game is called Capitalism.  In the US, enforcement of
intellectual property rights is entirely the responsibility of the
property owner.  As far as I can tell, this approach favors the free
flow of information.  While the vast majority of consumers and producers
of such property on the Web are well-behaved citizens, there will always
be pigs who want to extract revenue from the flow of information without
actually contributing value to it.  It seems quite lovely to me that
what's in Google's best interest will punish Altova for their bad
behavior, without any action from the contributors to this list.

No, just as players in a game whose objective is to attract the maximum
number of users to the advertising on your site.
