You can not, 100%, stop piracy. If there is a will, there is away.
Just as nothing is 100% hack or crack proof and can be hacked or cracked; everything can and will be pirated. Everything.
In fact the more you try to stop something; the more attention you bring to it and the more you encourage it.
Napster is a fine example. It generally was underground and while popular, generally unnoticed until it became an issue and then everyone & their grandma discovered it. And from Napster, was born well over a dozen (12) other competing sources.
Think of it like the urban legend... Make a fuss and pull 1 gray hair and you'll have a dozen (12) more.
Even if tomorrow, everyone unplugged from the Internet (World Wide Web); there would still be people willing and more than able to pirate. It can not and will not be stopped.
Period.
