Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment (ACE) is a coalition [1] of over 30 major global entertainment companies and film studios aimed at protecting corporate profits from copyrighted material. [2] ACE was launched on June 13, 2017.

The stated mission of ACE is to protect corporate profits, drawing on the anti-piracy resources of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). The organization plans to conduct research into online pirating, lobby law enforcement to stop and sue pirate enterprises, file sweeping civil litigations, and to "pursue voluntary agreements with responsible parties across the internet ecosystem" — such as search engines and broadband providers. [2]

On October 31, 2019, they shut down the streaming providers Openload and Streamango. In December of 2020, ACE shut down pirate IPTV service Beast IPTV. [3] In May of 2021, ACE shut down and seized the domain of popular streaming site 123movies.la. [4] In July of 2023, ACE shut down Zoro.to, the world's largest anime pirate site.

The organization promotes itself as marking a new level of coordination among multiple stakeholders. [2]

Background

According to anti-piracy watchdogs, internet users worldwide saved $107.9 billion by streaming from free content distributors in 2016. The efforts of the industry have proven ineffective at preventing online piracy. According to ACE, there are now as few as 480 online services complying with copyright law in an attempt to stem global demand for copyrighted content. [2] [5]

Members

As of May 2023, the members of the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment are: [6] [2] [7] [8] [9] [10]
