What would that even look like? GPL code can't be mass pirated by an army of private users, as with TPB--because it's free. And if some major players stole GPL code for commercial use, that would be remedied with a lawsuit, if at all.

Indeed. A company commits mass GPL infringement (e.g. shipping GPL code to a million customers without following the terms of the license) and it gets settled with, at most, a minor lawsuit. A different company helps its users commit mass copyright infringement (linking to torrents) and its servers get raided and its officers sent to jail.
