Every month, many millions of Americans visit pirate streaming site FMovies to bypass paid subscription services and watch movies and TV series for free. The platform is a thorn in the side of the movie industry and a prime exhibit in the quest for local site-blocking measures. According to SimilarWeb’s Top 10 chart of U.S. ‘Streaming & Online TV’ sites, FMovies beats Disney+ and Crunchyroll.
