      Just use another word for something that is in some ways similar to piracy, but isn’t piracy.

      By describing what you mean, instead of a word which often leads to discussions on word definitions, you can avoid the latter.

      I found saying “homophobia” lead to talk about “I don’t fear them” (phobia) rather than discussion on mistreatment. So instead I would say “aversion to homosexuality”.

      2pt… Had an important point: piracy = copyright infringement.

      Blocking ads is a ToS violation, not piracy.
