Yes, but think of all the money they miss due to your pirating of their paper ;) It's the typical discussion about whether piracy of copyrighted material leads to loss or gain of revenue. There are a lot of models here, but not necessarily well-validated.
Anyway, if people want to read your papers and cannot get them from ResearchGate, I'm sure they can find them on another online collection, a hub of some sort ;)
Cheers,
Robbie
