There ar enough legal gray areas still that it would take a lot of work to even figure out what "all digital piracy" even means. For instance, I don't think it's been tested in court yet whether the copying into RAM that your OS does when you run a program runs afoul of copyright.
Though, corporations routinely violate the terms of the GPL by distributing binaries without providing any way to get the source code. I'd say that qualifies as "digital piracy." So I suppose if the government did try to stop all digital piracy, it wouldn't be all bad.
