Internet piracy

Up to the present, there are so many controversies on the internet piracy. What is internet piracy? The term of internet piracy is commonly used to refer to unauthorized uses of content or copying patented material on the internet. Last few years, Internet piracy has been increased enormously. It has become such a worldwide problem. Then why there is piracy on the internet? Why a lot of people continually committed internet piracy? There must be some reasons for this act. Mostly, a lot of people download music, videos, games and software piracy from the internet because they want to enjoy the services and share the contents with spending less money. Many teenagers are more likely to downloading free music than purchasing physical CD on record shops. Also, people use software piracy and peer to peer filesharing websites. Furthermore, some people engage in internet piracy for commercial reasons. It financially derives great benefit them from their activity. They sell and advertise the pirated materials at competitive prices on the internet. Generally, it is hard to make people pay to download or listen to music and stop from purchasing illegal pirated software programs.

In order to prevent the internet piracy, there are many anti-piracy campaigns especially for youngers in most of the Europe and Asian countries. Also, some new system for detection of online music and online video piracy (DIF) has been introduced recently. Now People are continually making efforts to reduce the rate of internet piracy and software piracy. However, I think internet privacy will not be completely removed. Though, we can still reduce the rate of internet piracy.
