'anti-piracy' driven by porn

Today I discovered something that shocked me, but of course it had been obvious all the time: I just hadn't been thinking. All along I believed that it was the record and film companies that were behind the anti-piracy crack-down that has turned nasty in some parts of the world, especially the States. I was wrong. The anti-piracy crack-down is being driven by the porn industry. It makes sense now that I think about it--the porn industry makes at least ten times the amount of money that all forms of music do and porn is everywhere, especially on the Web.
