Ah yes, the ol' blame the user.

Sure.
> IMHO people pirate primarily because of money
The biggest video games are all free.

Because of piracy, all the streaming services operate like free to play games. Disney+ gets $80/yr from payers. Not bad. Compare to Clash of Clans which is closer to $10-15/yr (per payer).
They're doing a good job. I am not 100% sure what the payers are paying for. Lack of technical knowledge to pirate? You're right, nobody who would know how to do this would pay.
