There are various things I pay attention to because it can tell you what's going on that isn't being reported anywhere else.
One such is how illegal streaming sites are disappearing one after another for four, yes, four months now.
It actually all started with illegal sites hosting pirated (works behind a pay wall) manga, manhwa, comics, webtoon, and webcomics (we need an umbrella term for all of these).
Then the illegal anime streaming sites started to come down one-by-one.
This week, illegal Asian drama and Asian movie streaming sites started to disappear, and it is not over yet, they just started two days ago.
I've been trying to trace which Copyright groups are behind these, but to no avail. They are far too organize and systematically bringing down sites _effectively_.
There's no doubt they've been gathering information for years to be able to do this at this level. I don't think Western Copyright groups are involved. They haven't shown any organized action, even to this day. And they don't care about Asia-Pacific IP (Intellectual Properties); also, they hit a few and that's it.
So, who's behind these things bringing down illegal sites distributing Asia-Pacific IPs? When are they going to go public about it and release official data?
