Unfortunately for free speech advocates, the tone of industrialized nations has been supportive of declaring certain types of Internet content to be objectionable, with the UK both introducing new laws and breathing life into sometimes strange old ones in order to end access to online content it deems to be too extreme. Australia has poured enormous amounts of money into filters, each of which has been easily hacked by young tech enthusiasts.

Bit of confusion methinks. That paragraph is what people here saying that it shouldn't be regulated are referring to, not piracy/theft, which doesn't seem to be in their intended 'regulation' plan. They want to regulate content *they* deem as too extreme, they don't want to stamp out piracy/content theft.
