I'm not doubting the numbers, at all, but was online piracy actually lumped in with the online sale of counterfeit drugs in the wording of the poll? The numbers aren't very impressive (not to mention relevant) if it was. I mean come on.
EDIT: Nevermind I can see for myself that they did just that.

9. How important is it for our country to strengthen the laws to crack down on websites that sell counterfeit drugs or illegally pirated movies, videos and music?

That's a bit ridiculous
"Do you think online piracy and online identity theft are a problem?"
"Do you think online piracy and online stalking of minors by pedophiles is a problem?"
"Do you think it's important to strengthen laws against online piracy and online stalking of minors by pedophiles?"
Talk about stacking the deck.
