Exactly, the report didn't exactly come from an unbiased third-party source. But even if the findings of the report are accepted as true, that piracy was reduced immediately after the adoption of three-strikes (and because of three-strikes), so what? Why do content creators care about that if it doesn't also result in more sales (and the French minister of culture indicated that it hadn't)?
Was the point of the law to encourage people to pay for content, or to punish free riders who apparently weren't going to pay anyway?
