India’s entertainment world is booming like never before. Movies, web series, and streaming content are being made faster than ever. But there’s a big problem hiding behind this success – digital piracy. A new EY-IAMAI study shows that India loses over ₹224 billion every year because of piracy. Most of this huge loss comes from torrent websites where stolen copies of movies and shows are shared illegally.
Torrent sites are still the biggest source of these leaks. Hit movies often show up on these illegal sites just hours after they’re released in theaters or on streaming platforms. They spread like wildfire, cutting into the money that producers and platforms should be earning. The old way of sending legal notices to shut down these sites usually comes too late to stop the damage.
WARX: Leading India’s Fight Against Piracy
WARX Digital Private Limited (warx.in) is one of India’s fastest-growing anti-piracy and cybersecurity company. The company has already successfully protected over 500 movies and more than 10,000 digital files. Their protection list includes big hits like Vikram, LEO, Varisu, GOAT (The Greatest of All Time), and Dragon.
With all this experience under their belt, WARX is now launching their most powerful tool yet in the war against piracy – NetTrace.
NetTrace: Fighting Piracy in Real-Time
NetTrace (nettrace.in) is WARX’s newest creation, built to catch and stop piracy right where it starts. This smart system watches torrent activity 24/7 and spots when a movie or show is being shared illegally. It gathers important details like the IP address, location, internet company, and exact time of the piracy. This information can be used in court and helps take quick legal action.
When NetTrace finds all the IP addresses sharing stolen content through torrents, WARX immediately takes legal steps and alerts the internet companies involved. This fast response helps stop the illegal sharing before it spreads to more people. According to current data, this method is expected to cut down torrent-based piracy by up to 85% for protected content.
Teaching People About Piracy’s Real Impact
In India, piracy is a serious crime under the Copyright Act of 1957. It’s not just about torrent websites – anyone who downloads or shares pirated content from anywhere is breaking the law and could face legal trouble. If someone uses their office internet to access or share pirated content, it’s not just their problem – the whole company can get in trouble for being part of piracy. This is why both people and businesses need to be careful and avoid anything related to illegal content sharing.
NetTrace: Built for Maximum Results
NetTrace is a fresh solution that’s getting ready to protect several upcoming movies and streaming releases. It changes how the industry handles piracy by taking action fast – right when the problem begins, not after the harm is already done.
The first few days after a movie or show comes out are crucial for making money, and that’s exactly when piracy typically starts. NetTrace guards content during this make-or-break time. It doesn’t just help prevent early losses but also makes content protection more worthwhile, letting producers and streaming platforms keep more of what they earn and get their money back faster.
Building a Stronger Future for India’s Entertainment
Piracy isn’t just a small issue anymore – it seriously hurts India’s creative industry and economy. NetTrace is specially designed to stop piracy from torrents, giving the industry a better way to fight illegal content sharing.
WARX (warx.in) has been working hand-in-hand with entertainment companies to make anti-piracy efforts stronger. NetTrace changes the game from responding to piracy after it happens to stopping it as it occurs.
It’s time for movie studios, streaming platforms, internet providers, and viewers to come together in protecting creativity and building a brighter future for India’s entertainment industry.
