2012 Piracy Report

The following charts are based off of a data sample of over 4 million files harvested by PornGuardian.com. We are providing this data as a service to the industry. Note that some of the sites listed here respond well to DMCAs and some don't. These lists are not a measure of DMCA cooperation, but lists of where pirated files are found. We might publish a list in the future detailing those sites that respond the least to DMCA reports.
