At this year’s CinemaCon, the President and CEO of the Motion Picture Association, Charles Rivkin, has revealed a plan that would make it a little more difficult to download and consume illegal content. It doesn’t matter how much you enjoy visiting pirate bay every Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n

Rivkin has stated that the association will work with Congress to establish and implement legislation for blocking piracy websites in the United States.<\/strong> He added that nearly 60 countries use website blocking as a tool against piracy, “including major democracies and many of the closest allies of the United States.”<\/p>\n\n\n
