No, it's more akin to a landlord who knows that the tenants are running
an illegal business, having been informed multiple times in documented
detail what the tenants are up to, and who has the ability to terminate
the lease but fails to do so.  At some point, it gets egregious enough
to qualify as "aiding and abetting".
