And all those are *authorized*.
Remember how copywrite works: the owner of the IP authorizes certain things and not others. The actual mechanics don't matter, authorization is what matters.
Think of the many kinds of licensing that allow and even encourage copying or even redistribution (GPL, CC, etc).
It all comes down to what the owner/controller chooses to allow and when/where/how. And whether anybody cares to respect that.
Purely optional on both sides.
