That's just a rhetorical device. I'm not suggesting that word definitions are prescriptive.
Violence, by definition, is an unjustified use of force. If a use of force is justified then it isn't violence.
For example, suppose you're walking across a bridge and you see someone about to jump to their death. So you run over, pull them back from the brink, knock them down, and sit on them. Have you committed an act of violence? I would say not.
On the other hand, suppose the person is just standing on a street corner waiting for the light to change. If you run over, pull them back from the curb, knock them down, and sit on them, that would in fact be an act of violence.
Be honest, would you prefer an android slave that was programmed by a paragon of virtue, or one that was programmed by that unprincipled, evil-minded, lecherous kulak Harry Mudd?

Some observers see another reason for the frequent price hikes: to push subscribers to their breaking point, and compel them to opt for a lower-priced, or even free, ad-supported plan instead.
Disney CEO Bob Iger said as much during an August earnings call: “We’re obviously trying, with our pricing strategy, to migrate more subs to the advertiser-supported tier.”
I'll cancel my account before I willingly subject myself to advertising. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
