Despite your fun little loopholes, piracy by definition is theft. Find a different word for it if you’d like, but you can’t redefine the term because you don’t like what it implies.
Also… you cherry-picked your definition:
An act of robbery on the high seas, also an act resembling such robbery
unauthorized use of another’s production, invention, or conception especially in infringement of a copyright

Yeah… I’ve heard that tired argument before also. Some companies aren’t ALL companies. So this falls apart when nuance and common sense is applied.

Nearly everything I own is digital versions. I’ve not once had an issue being “bambozled.”
But then again, I don’t blow things out of proportion and apply the behavior of one thing to all things. This happens when one matures into adulthood.
