But other people clearly have a different opinion of what constitutes force. So we're back to the beginning. I would suggest using a different word, since your definition of "force" very much bends the standard English meaning. In particular, it's hard to use the verb form in regards to piracy: nobody is "forcing" anyone to do anything.
Edit: the physical meaning of force ("I forced the lock") doesn't really apply either...
