But they don't.

Whoever does something gets results, but gurus here say it's just bullshit...
Sponsors do a lot with piracy sites, they advertise on them and give them content.

The problem is ROI. Suing one and closing them, means all the traffic on that piracy site moves to another piracy site. So, spend a lot of time and money to get no where. It's cheaper and more productive to stick an advert on a piracy site.

Ethical? NO
Logical? A VERY BIG YES.

That's the situation of online porn. The solution isn't to sue one so anther takes it's traffic.

So what is the solution? That's a very tough question to answer.

Maybe a better product more suited to the buyers needs. And getting that with the cost of traffic is going to be hard.

Otherwise there's none. Sorry to be so negative, but if no one can come up with a better reason to buy porn. Then surfers will continue to go for the free option.
