Piracy

I believe that people who illegally copy songs, movies, games etc. should be punished for it. Why? I have three reasons. First: Piracy (illegal copying) is against the law, and incurs severe punishments when caught. Second: Piracy is immoral; it is stealing information from someone without their permission. And third: Piracy can hurt businesses. If there are free pirated copies of a product, then  businesses can suffer losses from not selling the genuine copy,  that could then make them unable to hire new workers or give raises to current workers. Altogether, I think people who commit piracy should be punished for the reasons stated above.
