Anti-piracy authorities say they have cracked down on illegal streaming of films and TV programmes, but data suggests the practice is booming, reaching 215 billion illegal site visits last year.

That figure from Britain-based MUSO, which claims the most comprehensive data on piracy websites, shows an 18-percent increase between 2021 and 2022, covering 480,000 films and TV shows.The entertainment industry is not giving up.

It formed the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment in 2017 to coordinate anti-piracy efforts with other industry groups globally. It does the legwork to track down big operators and alert police. Some are disarmingly frank:"I don't have any excuses. I could afford to pay for it all if I wanted, but instead of giving my money to some media company's CEO who makes a thousand times what I do, I'd rather just save the money for my own retirement," wrote Reddit user ScarecrowJohnny.
