“Piracy continues to be one of the biggest problems in the entertainment industry globally. The duplication and illegal distribution of movies, teleseryes, music, and other materials invalidate the hard work of those behind it. And as such, we are proud to join the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment in its global campaign against digital piracy. GMA Network, through various initiatives on different platforms, is consistently taking the necessary steps to combat the illegal distribution of our shows movies, music, and other materials. And through our partnership with ACE, we look to further strengthen these initiatives to protect our content,” sabi ni GMA Network CEO and Chairman Atty. Felipe L. Gozon sa kaniyang mensahe.

"We want to further encourage our Kapuso viewers to stream responsibly, fight piracy by creating awareness through educating them about the potential harms of clicking pirated websites and apps," sabi ni Atty.  Gozon-Valdes.

“We are thrilled to welcome GMA Network to the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment and look forward to working with them to combat piracy and protect content creators – in the Philippines and around the world. ACE is building a strong global network of media companies and partners who are working together to eradicate the serious threat piracy poses to the creative economy,” ayon naman kay van Voorn.
