He's clearly talking about piracy in general. The point being that just because something is a file, it doesn't mean it isn't intellectual property.

I do agree that in some scenarios piracy is fighting bad actors, like in this case, but it isn't a generalized rule, piracy also has a bad side.

So this guy comes here and defends the general idea of piracy based on a single instance in which it is actually good, which is just a fallacy.
