That would be true if piracy was hosted on their instance, which isn't the case. They just defederated the main hub because they're a bunch of white knight cry babies. Also piracy isn't illegal in the majority of the world. I don't live in the US and don't give a shit about the bottom line of some giant media corporation that would destroy literal lives in the pursuit of greed. Just the fact that so many people jump to the defense of these corporations is very telling about the current state of the fediverse.
