According to experts of the company specializing in the investigation and prevention of cybercrime, the income of illegal sites with pirated content directly depends on advertising traffic. Usually, the main "sponsors" of pirates are online casinos and other sites for playing for money. On average, a thousand user views costs advertisers about $ 3 (about 200 rubles).

The answer to the question "How to raise money?" is now known to every Russian-speaking user of the Network

The number of thefts of content from movie screens is growing: if last year there were 211 "screens" in Russian flooded into the network (and this is more than 6 times higher than in 2016), then this year only in the first nine months their number was 280 units. And this means that almost every second film released this year was illegally uploaded to the Network. At the same time, the cost of one screen copy is from 200 to 400 dollars.

According to film distributors, due to the expanse of illegal content, the industry loses 25-30% of potential fees every year. Pirates often go unpunished, because the content usually comes from abroad, but in Russia it is only voiced. In addition, minors are often engaged in shooting screen copies directly.
