Brazil is one of the biggest consumers of pirated pay-tv in the world. Around 33 million Brazilians access this content regularly, with football being one of the most popular products on these platforms. To highlight this reality, and in an effort to disrupt the broader piracy ecosystem in the country, DIRECTV GO and Mirum Brazil broadcast ‘The Pirate Match’, a live-streamed football match where everything was fake.
