The Chinese authorities, in conjunction with Apple and other rights holders are constantly shutting down fake stores, including fake Apple stores. So your comments are not only wrong they are misinformed.
It appears to me that there is a certain section of the GFY community that actually cheers on the pirates, if the layers we peeled back I am guessing it's likely that those people have some direct or indirect interest in piracy.
The facts are that we are making significant progress in this war. There are less file lockers now than there were when we started this project in 2012. We have completely reframed the way in which payment processors look at this sector. We have significantly raised awareness amongst payment processors of the risk associated with file lockers and as a result it is MUCH harder to get credit card processing for a file locker now than it was before this project began.
There will be naysayers, especially amongst those who directly or indirectly benefit from piracy.
