The funny thing about all these debate is the pirates always win. Not because 
they are morally right, but rather because piracy continues and isn't going to 
stop. Theft is part of human nature. You can't change human nature. Therefore, 
you cannot stop theft. I guess the question is: "Can you deter it?"
