Shut down their access to computer stores and the power companies while you're at it. Only fair. No piracy without computers or power.
The road that we're slowly headed down actually leads to a reality not too far from what you describe.
Computers are increasingly becoming a nested-doll situation wherein the end user is only given access to a lower privileged portion of hardware that exists within a larger supervisory system, of sorts. It will all be (and currently is) marketed as "for your security" "features" while owner control of computer systems is slowly being eroded.
