Yarg, matey! A cartoon pirate wears an eye patch, three-cornered hat, billowy shirt, and tall black boots. In real life, a pirate just boards ships and robs them of cargo, valuables, and money, often while wearing regular boring clothes.

Today, in addition to traditional pirates, there are pirates who use digital creative material, like books, movies, games, and music, without paying for it.
