Agree; one can do a very fast search starting with either "Modern Day Pirates", "Modern Day Piracy" or " Modern Piracy" as a term and find pages of information.
I read a few books about it last year and as you put it PhiGam found out just how common and scary it is.
As this report shows for the last week of March:
