Nobody's going to get guilted into stopping pirating, even if it kills the industry in the long run.  As long as people can get something for free and the risk is acceptable, they will do it because it is human nature.

Only thing that can be done is to remove the incentive to pirate by either making the risk unacceptable (console/online banning) or making features worth paying for (steam, secure servers).
