MPA Content-Protection Wing’s War Against Piracy
by Bob Verini, Variety — 17 March 2022
The centralisation of pirated content through illegal subscription services has actually made it easier for the screen industry to fight piracy, according to Jan van Voorn, the MPA’s chief of global content protection. From a 2019 high of 1,400 illegal platforms in North America, anti-piracy campaigns have reduced that number to 238 in 2021.
In an interview with Variety magazine, van Voorn discusses the evolution of content piracy and the key tactics that IP defenders deploy to disrupt the piracy ecosystem.
