If I had to guess, I would say Manga 100% and if I had to put a second place, it would be DENUVO (~~fucked~~) games.

I really think we're at a momentary historical nadir of maritime piracy. One of the big things that's going to happen as climate change fucks us is that satellite images are going to get less reliable.

Things like not-super-deep submarines are going to get easier, unmanned drones are already feasible at a municipal scale, and the technologies that have allowed statist navies to dominate the seas are already falling out of the meta in modern war.

I think the pirates've got this.
