They went after real pirates!”

I think you mean copyright infringers. Real pirates sail ocean going ships. They rob other vessels at sea and kill those on board. Montreal. No pirates there. My actual point is, don’t call file sharers (or copyright infringers such as those in the story) pirates, ever. Real piracy at sea is a heinous crime. Associating people who share media files with “pirates” might seem harmless, but it subconsciously affects peoples perception of file sharing. Then when the MPAA splashes “piracy is illegal!” all over the place it makes it sound like some horrible thing to many people. We are talking about sharing songs and videos here. Don’t confuse that with robbing and killing people. It’s exactly what the big media companies want you to do.

People think I’m nuts, but I really mean it.

They went after real pirates!
