How has the film industry tried to combat piracy?

What will be an ideal response?


ANS: The industry, through the MPAA, has pushed law enforcement officials in the United States and abroad to enforce copyright laws by pursuing large-scale, commercially oriented pirates. The MPAA is also going after file sharing of films between individual computers over the Internet and cracking down on the copying of films inside theaters. The film industry strongly supported the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) in the U.S. Congress; however, the act was considered too intrusive into online freedom to pass.
