Strengthening its campaign against piracy, leading Philippine broadcast giant GMA Network launched its first anti-piracy campaign video featuring one of its ambassadors, Sparkle star and Kapuso Primetime Princess Barbie Forteza. The one-minute video, now streaming on GMA’s social media platforms, features Barbie in a fun interaction with her fans via live streaming.
While streaming good reviews of her recently-concluded hit primetime series “Maria Clara at Ibarra", one netizen commented that she watched the series on a non-legitimate website. Barbie immediately called out the netizen, encouraging her and other viewers only to watch shows on official and legitimate sites to avoid the dangers of malware from unsafe websites and services. ”Mas masayang ulit-ulitin ang Maria Clara at Ibarra sa ating official website. Malinaw na, kumpleto pa ang episodes. Manood po tayo sa official sites kasi with your continued support mas marami pa kaming magagawang original at exclusive content para sa inyo. Kaya stream responsibly, and together, let’s fight piracy! (“It’s more fun to binge-watch Maria Clara at Ibarra when you watch it on GMA Network’s official websites. The site provides you with high-quality and complete episodes of your favorite Kapuso shows. With your continued support, GMA will be able to create world-class and original content for Global Pinoys worldwide. Let us all stream responsibly, and together, let’s fight piracy!”)" shares Barbie on the video campaign.
In another anti-piracy campaign video, Barbie also reminded global Pinoys to watch Kapuso programs overseas through official streaming platforms and channels such as GMA Pinoy TV. “Makakaasa po kayo sa mas marami pang quality shows dahil sa patuloy na suporta ninyo. Doon po tayo sa legit. Bukod sa mapapanuod nang malinaw at buo ang episodes, may English subtitles pa, kaya stream responsibly and together, let’s fight piracy! ("Through the support of our Kapuso viewers and Global Pinoys worldwide who watch through our website and legitimate platforms, we can all expect more world-class shows from GMA. Aside from the high-quality and complete episodes, it also includes English subtitles for viewers around the world. That’s why we should all stream responsibly and fight piracy!”)" she shares.
GMA Network is consistently taking the necessary steps to combat the illegal distribution of content globally through its various initiatives on different platforms. Through its partnership with the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment (ACE) and Intellectual Property of the Philippines (IPOPHL), these initiatives are further strengthened throughout the country and even abroad.
