Downloading free movies. Revisited.
Last January I posted a tidbit about downloading free movies. To this day it’s still the #1 term in my search stats.
I’d mentioned that 78% of people think stealing a DVD from a movie store would be a serious offense. And yet, 60% of people think it’s okay to download free movies off the Internet.
Does that seem strange? It shouldn’t. It’s the curse of anonymity. Apparently, it’s easier to steal from people when (a) you don’t see their face and (b) when the odds of getting caught seem pretty low.
Keep in mind that nothing is really anonymous. When you download anything, the server records your IP address and your ISP knows who each IP address is assigned to and when. How did you think they bust those online porn rings?
Gotta love the winning answer to “where can I watch free movies? “
