"Omitting" it from a search would be like me telling the world we should boycott boats - after all, people use them to smuggle in drugs. Or a complete ban on firearms - who cares if people use them for legitimate hunting, people hurt others with them!
I'm not saying I agree with piracy, but censorship is dangerous territory. Unfortunately, its one of the only 'real' ways to 'police' the internet at this juncture.

Well, considering more than "half" of those "boats" carry "drugs", yes. (If you know what i mean by that methaphore)
Until better measures can be taken, yes.
Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.
