I know it's a non-serious play on the piracy/theft meme, but in seriousness, "stealing" is probably not the right word for private information leakage.

- andyferris 3y agoI think a sentences like "the Russian spy stole American military secrets", "a hacker stole my password" and "a very slow cross-site SVG filter attack stole a copy of my pixels" are perfectly valid and clear English. Piracy is the odd-one-out because it's about "stealing" non-secret information, which seems non-sensical.
