Project 2746

Abstract

In the 1990s, the world was introduced to the economic threat known as Internet piracy. It affects the copyright owners because they end up losing money that should have been spent on their product. This led to a long battle of online piracy between the pirates themselves, copyright owners, and governments around the world. Some even began to have a moral debate on piracy, asking themselves if it is really as heinous as people make it out to be or if it could help boost that product’s popularity and revenue. All of this information was taken and composed into a short narrative film which questions the history and ethics of Internet piracy.
