5. The Equivalent of 31 Billion Movies in 2012
Growing to 77 Billion Movies in 2016
Data cut and paste from Cisco on Dec 6,
2012 clearly shows BitTorrent
increasing from 8 Exabytes
a month in 2012 to 19 Exabytes a
month in 2016.
In the US in 2012, that is the
equivalent of 31
billion movies being illegally
consumed. In 2016,
that is the equivalent of 77 billion
movies being
illegally consumed.
It is not all movies. It is music, video
games, software, apps, TV shows and
ebooks. About 30% is movies in 2012 in
the US. That is 11 billion movies. Growth of p2p Filesharing
(mostly BitTorrent) – Dec 6 2012

6. Why Do Many People Say BitTortrent Is
Decreasing?
“In absolute traffic level, BitTorrent has risen in
volume by over 40%, but the application
continues to exhibit a steady downward trend in
overall traffic share, declining to 10.31% of total
peak traffic from being 11.30% a half a
year ago. As the most popular Filesharing
application, BitTorrent’s decline has had a major
influence on the decline of the Filesharing
(formerly P2P Filesharing) traffic category, which
since 2010 has seen its traffic share decline from
19.2% to 12.0% of peak period aggregate traffic.”
– Sandvine Nov 2012
Overall internet traffic grows 120% a year. If
BitTorrent “declined” to 10.3% of total traffic
from 11.3% in a year that total traffic went up
120% ‐ THAT IS AN INCREASE IN TRAFFIC.

12. Copyright Is Under Attack
• There is a well coordinated and financed campaign to weaken copyright
and distribute misinformation in the press, in academia and in the courts.
Lobbies governments around the world that copyright is a
barrier to innovation. Funded by Soros.
Funded by Google execs’ families. Files amicus briefs to
weaken the cases of rights holders who enforce.
“User’s rights” group funded by Soros.
Lobbies governments that the Internet is
a human right and suspending service for
copyright violations is a violation of
human rights.
