We have no idea if images by Stable Diffusion violates copyright, there is no legal precedent.

Technically we do have examples of stable diffusion violating copyright, it will generate some exact clone images if you give it the right prompt and that image exists a few hundred times in the training data.
Just because stable diffusion can be used to violate copyright doesn't mean it only does.
For something like 11 images which were accidentally repeated hundreds of times in the training data this is true. They're more the exception that proves the rule.
