I firmly believe that the best way to cripple piracy is to devalue it as an activity, that means shutting off revenue streams such a payment processing, ad revenue and so on.

I'd am willing to work with anyone to sue piracy sites based on the evidence we gather, however I am not in favour of suing end users - attacking your constituency, even if it does pirate your product is a short term strategy that will only alienate other potential customers.

The most successful strategies thus far have been to make running a piracy service or site a costly endeavour that is fraught with risk, this is the way I work with Stop File Lockers and also underpins the new campaigns I plan to embark on this year.
