What do pirates do today?

Answer:

Same as always; they are a lawless group taking over ships and stealing the cargo, sometimes killing and the crew; the ransom the crew. They do not confine themselves or their acts to the sea - they have 'evolved' into street gangs as well. Stealing, raping, pilaging is pretty much their MO.
