“Defending OTT Growth – Piracy, Password Sharing and Beyond”.

* What are the newest strategies and tools for fighting piracy?
* Is password sharing acceptable as a form of marketing that can help build buzz if it leads to significant revenue loss?
* How has COVID-19 altered video piracy and password sharing behaviors?
