Netflix begins reporting pirated links to google

Netflix's efforts to restrict the use of VPN services, Proxies and any other method that breaks the regional restrictions of the service and enjoy all its online programming without limits are known. In recent times, Netflix has also adopted an aggressive stance to prevent the content of its series from being easily obtained online, this is evidenced by the more than 70, 000 complaints (71, 861 from December to date) that it made to Google to have these links removed from your search engine.

Until recently Netflix was not very interested in the piracy of its series on the Internet, but its strategy seems to have changed dramatically during this year 2016. The more than 70, 000 complaints, to date, were with the help of Vobile, one of the many subsidiaries that are dedicated precisely to preserving copyright and making complaints by DMCA and thus curb piracy a little,

Large companies and film and television producers are concerned about how they distribute their products for free online and try to stop it by reporting links in large quantities, Google received 1 million complaints per day during 2014. The funny thing about this whole thing is that this has not stopped the free distribution of copyrighted content, but is increasing year after year, the millions of complaints per day is only a palliative.

Evolution of the number of complaints to Google in recent years

The series that Netflix tries to protect the most by denouncing its copyrighted links are House of Cards, Narcos, Sense8 and movies like The Ridiculous 6 and A Very Murray Christmas.

House of Cards the most pirated series on Netflix

Recall that the previous Netflix CEO, Reed Hastings, during 2013 admitted that piracy was not a problem and that they used it as a tool to know the scope and success of their series, things seem to have changed a lot since then.
