Why it matters
Despite progress being made against piracy by law enforcement and government regulation, and championed by organizations like Denmark’s Rights Alliance, the UK’s FACT and the AudioVisual Anti-Piracy Alliance (AAPA) in the EU and UK; piracy will be a significant issue for many years to come.
