I do not need to justify something what does not happen. Piracy is not stealing.

definition of stealing is taking something from another person so that he looses that item.

If I take photo of your car I did not steal it.


Copyright has nothing to do with stealing it is a mechanism on how to provide artists with some income so that they get some incentive to work and enrich us with free content.
Patent laws were actually created with intent to prevent situation described by BB. so that if you fully describe your invention and agree to transfer it into public domain 20 years later you get monopoly on it for that time. but if you decide to hide it and keep it to yourself anyone is allowed to take it and use for free
BB behavior was pretty common in the middle ages where everything was kept as closely guarded trade secret to prevent that from leaking in to public.


Fortunately for me, technology is moving in the direction where DRM is impossible. Also artists are turning obsolete as profession. AI is already doing pretty good job here.

Furthermore even if we hypothetically assume that situation then there will be no big difference because existence of this technology is not in any way related to piracy. If you are paying for content it does not affect you besides creating you some inconvenience. If you do not pay for content you just don't get access to certain content but since you woud not be paying anyway result is same for the artist.

Such question actually makes no logical sense unless you assume that this kind of technology will reduce amount of leaking works so we are supposed to buy more to prevent it from being developed and still enjoy easy piracy.
but You should understand yourself how ridiculous is that idea because this essentially transforms purchase into donation where you "buy" content not to get access to it but to support artist even if you could just download all that for free.

Anyway, DRM development does not depend on piracy levels. If such magic technology was possible it woud have been in in use already
