It's not complicated. The point is that only about 10% of the people who responded to this poll (and yes, ~100 responders is a small subset of the MR forum users) have never engaged in illicit acts as defined by the publishers.
Furthermore, this anonymous poll's granularity gives interesting insight into the proportion of people engaged in these various activities ranging from DRM removal to downloading whatever books they feel like. This is a much more informative poll, although it is generally consistent with the binary non-anonymous poll on this same subject in this forum.
