If you give them two things, they will consider it a choice. Executives will pick "change the name", decree that the problem is fixed, and continue being awful.
If you give them one thing: stop being awful they will have to actually think about it, even if the thought of treating customers well makes the executives very uncomfortable.
This proves that the DMCA is insufficient to protect content owners from embarrassment online and why we need SOPA and stronger forms of censorship to be enacted into law.
Both ends of a connection need encryption. That encryption does not need to be built into the internet infrastructure you are using. All you need is the ability to communicate messages, like raw packets, or 'packet messages' of data over a TCP connection.
Those messages are encrypted blocks. The other end that you connect to has to understand them.
So that other end could be some sort of relay or gateway to the free internet and that gateway would be located in the free world (if there still is such a thing).
On your local end you would have a proxy that your browser connects to. That proxy encrypts traffic and pipes it back and forth between a gateway or gateways in the free world. In fact, the more gateways the better.
Perhaps the next anarchy protocol needs to support 'streams' where every packet of the stream can come from a different IP address. Think like a TCP stream, but each packet of the stream might come from a different TOR exit point. At the receiving end the 'anarchy protocol' support (think the TCP reassembly of packets into a stream) would reassemble packets from diverse IP addresses into the stream from which it started at the other end. This would not only allow encryption, but would significantly hinder traffic analysis. When sending, every packet of an outgoing stream would take a different route and might even go to a different TOR entry point.
Censorship and Spying are damage which will be routed around.
What you are suggesting is that if someone stole your car and wrecked it, that once criminally convicted, you would not be able to civilly sue for restitution.

Piracy is too harsh a term for copyright infringement done by fans.
