Don’t worry about the title, I’m not here to rail on the whole anti-piracy thing theme again. But in a previous post movie blog reader Kneon gave us a link to a funny little fake PSA anti-piracy video that I just had to share with you guys.
Check it out:

Hey guys, all these parodies are great but you don’t know that Italian government administration actually produced and send in theathers a campaign like those. It’s not a joke. They really did that!!!

Thanks Smeerch, the anti-ad from the first link was great. :) Anybody who knows italian should check it out.
Also, the video in the main post seems to have been removed. Anybody has another source?

Smeerch, your ad was made by the European Union. They have the same ad in every country, the just change the written language. The funniest version is in Belgium. Because it is a bilingual county, you have to watch the same thing twice on some DVDs. Once in French and once in Flanders.

“We’re sorry, this video is no longer available.”
Apparently they’re mad that the piracy video was pirated on YouTube…
