Flawed analogy

The reasoning you use is somewhat flawed. Comparing it with driving would mean removing the road rather than an idividuals drivng licence. Equally your analogy would mean that where a drug smuggler was caught then the aircraft/ferry should be removed.
The ideal is for media providers to make their product to sell at a very low price, thus negating the desire to download pirate copies. This would result in far fewer millionaires in the entertainment industry.
