For those who don't know what's piracy, piracy is unauthorized use or reproduction of copyrighted or patented material. Piracy is half over the net. Every people want things at free-of-cost, no one wants to pay for the company products. This not only effects the company but also the customer(i.e., the person who is using pirated products) as there will be no words of guarantee for the product.
What would you do if you are given the task of completely remove and prevent piracy over the internet?

A very short and precise answer sufermac. You do have a point there. The file-sharing sites are the core for this problem. But you cannot stop the file-sharing sites and the torrent sites as they are not responsible. The users of the sites are the ones to be blamed. You can say the sites should go through files uploaded by the users but they can only do that with the names. Every file cannot be checked for its contents as they have millions of files in their storage system.
Thank You for your Response.
I would be appreciative if you give more of your views.
