I'm not 100% sure what is being discussed here. This guy put something on the internet for free... and it is getting passed around?
Then he removed it? You do know you can't really remove stuff from the internet? Pretty much everything is cached and proxied. So, he is going to have a hard time ensuring that it is removed from all those cached locations and I'm not sure calling people that access those caches pirates is quite fair.
Now, if someone took those posts, and complied them and uploaded them somewhere else, that probably is piracy.
If you put something up on the internet that you don't protect in some way it is pretty much public at that point anyway.
