What does the “C'est du vol” meme mean?

Where does the “C'est du vol” meme come from?
Groland is a French satirical show airing on Canal+ since 1992, created by Benoît Delépine and Christophe Salengro, portraying a grotesque fictional country called Groland. Jules-Édouard Moustic hosted many sketches mocking this imaginary country’s political, economic, and social life with heavy exaggeration. The line “c’est du vol” (“this is theft”), delivered in that register of fake outrage at an abuse, became an easily recognizable catchphrase of the show, later picked up by internet users who quote it, in capitals and with the same theatrical tone, to denounce a price or a situation seen as scandalous in real life.
