Study finds anti-piracy messages backfire, especially for men
Threatening messages aimed to prevent digital piracy have the opposite effect if you're a man, a new study from the University of Portsmouth has found. According to the research, women tend to respond positively to this kind of messaging, but men typically increase their piracy behaviors by 18%.

Those Ads at the beginning of legitimate copies of DVDS and movies, really bugged me, like why are you annoying the people who actually bought the product!? Also the people downloading stuff online seemed cool in those videos so I think the ads had the opposite effect a lot of the time.
That shit bothered me as far back as in the 80's on VHS rentals. They've never treated viewers as anything other than a sales opportunity. The motion picture industry has always been disgusting and dehumanizing.
Plus they come off like those ridiculous anti-drug ads that make it seem like a single puff of weed will make you shoot your friend in the face and run your dog over. They're just way over the top to the point that they're comical and easy to mock.
We are cool get in it with us chud.
I would absolutely download a car, sounded like the coolest shit to me as a 14 year old
Check out the cool hoodie!
Might have to cop that hoodie, but I'm not watching bros camrip 💀
Agreed, they're the worst!
Weirdly enough I used to enjoy camrips when I was broke and depressed, kinda gave me the feeling I was in a room with people.
My favourites were the ones where people couldn't sit still, felt good yelling at someone to sit the fuck down, knowing they cant hit me.
That's actually really sweet ahhh
hella 90s
Give me the means and hell yea I'd download a car!
This is Chad. Chad downloaded the movie from a pirate site, then smoked a joint and got a blowjob. Don’t be like Chad.
