the so-called moder day pirates are nothing but terrorists with guns on a boat. they have no code, no rules, no organization, no reason or goal. they give the true pirates of the past a bad name. colonial pirates did what they did because they wanted freedom on the seas.
To get money. Because they don't wanna get up and get a real job.

Whatever the pirates can acquire. Modern day pirates have semi-automatic rifles and RPGs among their arsenal. Not modern pirates, 1600 pirates.

Yes, their is modern day pirates now that usually jump on war ships and steal everything. Not pirates that you see in movies.
No,They use speed boats and prefer to be fast before anyone realises that they are pirates and about to attack.

You go to Somalia. But you have to be black, or else they will take you as prisoner.
Whether you are talking about POTC pirates or modern day pirates the answer is to get money and other various goods.
Both groups are considered violent, antisocial, and mostly in poor health. Pirates are lawless, and both the early ones and their modern equivalents killed without regard. The early pirates may been less violent, and probably didn't torture the people they killed. Modern pirates use the violence to send a message, and will dismember people and torture them in a effort to get more money. Piracy is a capital offense and has been since the 1700's, so pirates very rarely come a shore. Early pirates established small settlements on Caribbean Islands, where they could hide from military ships that hunted them. Modern, Somalian pirates, sometimes take control over coastal towns, where they can protect themselves and the things they steal. Earlier pirates usually suffered from scurvy, which is caused by a lack of fruit nutrients in the diet. They spent most of their time on the sea, so many of them were malnourished. Modern pirates still suffer from malnourishment, but better food preservation technology has limited this. Much of what modern pirates steal is illegal drugs, so many suffer from drug addiction.
