I said this in a sibling comment, so I risk belaboring the point here, but I don't think piracy is all that competitive for the lay person.
Put on your non-tech-savvy hat and google "watch <movie> online" or "torrent <movie>" and try to navigate a streaming website. You need to be somewhat tech savvy just to navigate the minefield. For example: https://pelispedia.tv -- it's confusing, frustrating, and full of popups/ads.
The layperson depends on someone more tech savvy to give them instruction. But even then, I once showed my sister how to download torrents and she got a scary letter from Comcast in Austin. My guess is that Comcast simply participates in the seeding process of the top 10k torrents and waits for its customers to connect. She hasn't tried since.
