Pirates of the new world

It's so darned easy to become a pirate these days, isn't it?

Download a couple of songs illegally, and you get to add the Jolly Roger to your online avatar. Download a couple of movies, and the MPAA chases you across the high seas.

When they make a Pirate movie a hundred years from now, I can imagine its final scene :

/* MPAA honcho and his minions walk away after declining to file charges against the hero, who is a plump teenager with horn-rimmed spectacles. */

Keira Knightley's father : So, this is the path you've chosen? After all, he is a C# programmer.

Keira Knightley : No......... He's a pirate.
