That's extreme and violent. We can do better than this.
As someone who makes money selling software, I think we should abolish copyright and let these companies give contracts to their users which bind them not to share the songs and movies they bought.
Then it's up to the company to report when actual violation is occurring and bring, in a fair court case, whether a certain user shared the material or not, breaching their contract with the company.
If you access material shared breaching a contract you're not doing anything illegal.
If you're selling passively too many copies that enforcing all these contracts is too problematic or expensive, you can consider it a natural market tax on the huge profits you're making.
We shouldn't give shortcuts for companies to enforce their copyright, they have this problem specifically because they are the richest 1%.
