Yea, but one is a completely valid problem now, I don't think anyone will question the fact that piracy is hurting sales?

the other is a "slippery slope" problem in the future, it's a bit of a stretch to go from throttling unprofitable users engaged in illegal activity, to blocking porn because some moral police pressured them to do so...
