I don't get why people respond negatively to these threads.

To think piracy is some new, unbeatable monster makes you look silly. Piracy is simply a crime, just like any other crime. You never totally stop a certain type of crime, but you manage it.

Take auto theft for example. Cars still get stolen but by using criminal prosecutions, security devices, and consumer education, etc., you can manage it so that your car isn't stolen every time you turn around.

Same with piracy. You simply treat it like any other criminal activity and use a multifaceted approach to managing it to a reasonable level.

If you're going to wait around for one magic thing to stop piracy, you'll wait forever. The world doesn't work like that. It's things like what Steve(s) and Robbie are doing that will bring piracy down to a manageable level.
