Be careful with piracy in the US: It’s not enforced by police but if you’re doing science or engineering then the biggest employer in your field might be the government (DoD etc.) It’s not all that rare for people to get denied security clearances because of excessive piracy and that would make it way harder for you to be employed. This is a huge part of the problem with having laws on the books that just aren’t always enforced.
