I have a strong intuition that if you price things fairly, if you're governing well, people will be willing to pay - and that piracy ultimately happens because either 1) society isn't providing enough foundational resources to the largest cog in the wheel of capitalism (consumers), or 2) to my first point: things are overpriced, or say - someone paid for a movie ticket - and then they feel like they've already contributed enough - but want to watch it and download it later, etc.
I also have a growing intuitive that "piracy" being legal is the counterpoint to the capitalistic system unfairly gouging/extracting excess value from society.
Also an unrelated intuition: ads are a virus related to greed and control which bypasses regular, natural trust and growth mechanisms, e.g. word of mouth learning/education of products/services/communities that normally would warrant analysis, curation, by trusted community leaders - and then those community leaders would meet and share, that knowledge then shared with each community; tribes of people who didn't do this well, who didn't have a good sense of trust or this kind of hierarchical structure for sharing/learning, would have arguably been more easily killed off by other tribes, dis-ease, etc.
