When they think it is morally correct, yeha. When they think piracy is morally correct and ethical, they are basically disregarding private property and private incentive. They think it is their right to have free access to information that others worked to create.
I wouldn't have a problem if they accepted they are basically stealing, at least I'd respect that, but they won't. They think piracy is freeing society from capitalism. If you don't believe me, keep reading the posts in this community.
