Online piracy slows in Russia

June 10, 2019 12.58 Europe/London By Chris Dziadul

The growth of pirated traffic on the internet in Russia now stands at 10%, according to Group-IB CEO Ilya Sachkov, speaking last week at the St Petersburg International Economic Forum and quoted by Comnews.

This compared to 12% in 2018 and up to 20% in previous years.

Meanwhile, Alexander Zharov, head of Roskomnadzor, said that 330,000 piracy links have so far been removed from the search engine Yandex.

Furthermore, legal traffic to online movies has quadrupled since the signing of an anti-piracy memorandum last November.
