这就是盛行于几个世纪前欧洲的“私掠(privateer)”制度。

Also lots of cases of 私掠船, which would also be "privateer" in English, since it means both the ship and the people on it. But presumably that's covered by 私掠/船?
----------------------------

Editor: It's a verb ("to privateer") and when used as a noun, it's the *activity* (privateering), not a person (a privateer).

HDC ~ 私自掠取財物

From the baidu reference:
“私掠”,指的是由交战国委托的私人武装船只攻击敌方船只,通常是商业船只的行为。
