Piracy is theft of income. End of story. It is theft.

Like I wrote, wage theft, which is very much 'theft of income', is often a matter of civil law, just like copyright infringement.

Piracy and theft-theft are criminal law.

While you may think they are all the same, the law clearly does not, and you've been subject to a lifetime of corporate activism to convince you they are the same.
