USA resident who factually understands that intellectual "property" is not property as thoughts. idea's etc can not be owned as property. What you call intellectual property is in fact more accurately referred to as intellectual privilege, and unauthorized copying of your work is not "piracy" which is a violent act of theft normally on the high seas.
Attempting to conflate copyright with property and property crimes is not only illogical it is highly immoral
copyright may be worth defending, in a very limited way, but it certainly is not on the same level of property nor should it be considered such.
Copyright to the extent it is worth defending should be returned to the original US Constitutional limits and applicability, and returned to the timespan of the original copyright law (14 years, and 1 extension of a human author of 14 years.. meaning corporations get 14 years, humans can get upto 28 years and no more. and All copyright ends at death of the author. )
