There is really nothing that can be done to stop internet piracy. Each year, more and more people figure out how to get online and get the shows and movies that they want to see without having to pay the studios or sit through all the advertisements. Today, Torrentfreak.com has released their lists of the top ten movies and top ten TV shows that were pirated throughout 2012. While the TV list is just about what I expected, with Game of Thrones and Dexter leading the pack, I was pretty surprised to see Project X and Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol beat out The Dark Knight Rises and The Avengers.
