It's a bit more specific than piracy, since piracy today is more commonly associated with an individual stealing content for personal use, or to resell the content itself.

Freebooting is certainly more specific than piracy, but I think you may have missed the word "like" in there. GP means that the word "freebooting" itself is not new, but its new meaning in today's context is (like "pirate") new.
