If someone wanted to publish the plays and player movements in any of those games - they totally can.

What you're referring to is video broadcast rights. That's rather different. The World Chess Championship's rights on those weren't violated.

This is the equivalent of someone writing down the play-by-play in a game - and that would also be completely legal.
