Piracy has never been stealing. It's copyright infringement. The two are completely different.
Media corporations try to pressure us into thinking that piracy is stealing
Yep. Because stealing is a crime that goes back thousands of years. It was an old crime by the time the 10 commandments were written down. Meanwhile, copyright infringement is a new thing that's maybe a few centuries old at most, and it's a lot more morally ambiguous. Is it wrong to infringe on a monopoly that the government has given a corporation over the sharing of a tangible expression of an idea? Maybe sometimes? Maybe not other times?
