CODA Works With Brazil to Shut Down 16 Anime Piracy Sites; ACE Works with Vietnam to Shut Down Film, Anime Piracy Sites

The news website Torrent Freak reported on August 27 that several non-anime piracy websites such as Fmovies and anime piracy sites such as AnimeSuge and Aniwave (formerly 9anime) had shut down.

Japan’s Content Overseas Distribution Association (CODA), an organization that aims to reduce worldwide piracy and actively promote the international distribution of Japanese content, revealed on August 26 that through a criminal complaint filed by a CODA member company, several Japanese anime piracy websites in Brazil were exposed in April and subsequently shut down.

Phase 1 of the operation was conducted from February to March 2023, which CODA stated resulted in the shutdown of 36 anime piracy websites.
