In fact if it will be introduced a sistematic and constant stop of advertising on pirate sites, as well as the current credit card sales stop we see since few months: this may be enough to make piracy no more profitable anywhere for anyone. Further, it may become even not sustainable for "no profit pirates" due to hosting costs, which need to be paid in any case. Both no uploaders affiliates or advertising, would leave only the option of donations via bank wires, quite unlikely an option.
I think there are only a few dozens of ad networks serving ads to pirates, and less than an hundreds of major final advertisers, so to "reach" all them it does not impossible
Also often the domain name registrars are involved, see this about Enom:
