  I think they use the word pirate because back in the days real pirates were brutal and ruthless. So they need a nefarious sounding name for radio abusers. However, many people hearing the word pirate they think of a swashbuckling rebels battling the establishment like portrayed in the movies from Errol Flynn to Johnny Depp.
