Yeah, but the definitions in the dictionary reflex the daily use of the language. For example, here in Mexico we use the term "chingado" and the RAE adopt that term. I think that what Georg tries to say is that "pirate" it's in the origin a bad word for 'unauthorized copying' for example, and reflex a bad aspect in the society.

Btw. you talk about pirates..? Pirates attach ships on the high seas, and kidnap and murder people on them ;-) If you by 'pirates' mean people that make unauthorized copies, please use a term like eg. 'unauthorized copying'.
