It's worse than that. Imagine a whole line of burglars standing outside your door. Only one of them needs to be a skilled lock picker. Once that one burglar opens the lock, the rest of them can just walk right in and take whatever they want.

Instead of worrying about and trying to take measures to prevent piracy, invest the time and effort into letting the folks who might like your work know that you and it exist, and grow your readership. The more people who read your stuff and want more, the more who will pay you for it, pirates or no.

Exactly. Worry about making your product a better value for your customers. Pirates are not your customers.
