I’m guessing;
- space flight so cheap that a normal person could buy and use a space vehicle for less than the cost of a house
- space freight

Just look at piracy in the 17th and 18th century, and set that in space.
It would require space travel to be commonplace, with FTL - so basically impossible.
Not necessarily, the alternative is that there is human habitation within the solar system, such as Lagrange point colonies.
That’s traceable and predictable. It would be too easy for whatever authorities there be to watch you the entire flight there and know you were there. Too easy to intercept. Too easy to block your only haven.
Piracy worked with no tracking so you have plausible deniability, and multiple potential safe harbors
