According to London‑based piracy monitoring and content‑protection firm MUSO, unlicensed streaming is the predominant source of TV and film piracy, accounting for 96% in 2023. Piracy reached a low in 2020, with 130bn website visits. But by 2024 that number had risen to 216bn. In Sweden, 25% of people surveyed reported pirating in 2024, a trend mostly driven by those aged 15 to 24. Piracy is back, just sailing under a different flag.

    Not me. Funny enough, for the last 20-years I've been so "trained" to automatically pirate that I was having a hard time finding a decent copy of The Expanse. Didn't realize I had it through my Amazon Prime subscription.
