So what has the industry done to combat piracy?
 

It seems with the popularity of Mobile technology, mobile apps. the Apple and Android phones, the reaction of porn by foreign countries. and all the big distractions that had crossed the end of 2009 and 2010, has there been significant advances made by the industry to combat piracy? I have been trying to find new and promising announcements in the news about this, but it seems no one is really taking any real active step to do so.

I may be wrong with my statement, but have you known anything new that's worth mentioning? How closer are we in really defeating piracy? Or has this issue been relegated to the back burners?

Well the internet police is getting stronger as the internet grows because several governments found out that the security on the internet must be made stronger and the rules must be enforced else the internet will become uncontrolable (nobody can take control on the internet because the right of the free speach can't be revoked from anyone in the whole world) and the World Market will be changed.

There are several big companies like Microsoft, Apple and others and most of their users download the software from torrent sites thus causing the company to lose profit. No, I didn't say that I've never downloaded a movie, game or program (etc.) from torrent sites but after I've found it good enough to keep using it (or I felt that the movie is good enough) I went to store and I bought it.

In this year in Hungary several torrent sites where deleted, in a week 90% of the Hungarian torrent sites hosted in the country and not on an offshore server shut their doors so the Hungarian government cares a lot about piracy. ;)
