LOS ANGELES: Disney/Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame, poised to be the hugest movie opening in history, has hit piracy networks – two days before its US premiere – with a copy evidently recorded in a Chinese movie theatre now circulating online, according to a published report.
Users in China began sharing a 1.2-gigabyte file of Avengers: Endgame on peer-to-peer piracy networks sometime between 4pm and 5pm China time on April 24, piracy-news site TorrentFreak reported. The pirated copy has since spread to English-language torrent networks, according to the report.
