There's no such thing as piracy. If your business model doesn't work in a post-physical-scarcity world, you need to change your business model.

Peeps, downvoting is easy. Anyone has counter-arguments?

There's no counter-argument because you have no argument at all, just a brazenly re-defined term.
A rational discussion requires shared language. You've thrown that out the door right at the start.
Piracy related downvotes are political. But I think your comment makes some sense: fighting piracy is fighting against freedom, for censorship and authoritarinism, a world where you might not even have a freedom to write a book to begin with.
