This isn't a "disagreement" with the GP. Piracy is a legal concept, and they were speaking in legal terms. Whether or not copyright has "worn out its welcome", it continues to be a legal reality in the US.

Then why should internet archive, which fills a number of niches that aren't just book or document piracy, be killed off?
