Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment


Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment is a coalition of more than 50 major global entertainment companies and film studios, aimed at reducing online piracy of copyrighted material. ACE was launched on June 13, 2017.
The mission of ACE is to detect, deter, and dismantle piracy, drawing on the anti-piracy resources of the Motion Picture Association. The organization conducts research into online pirating, lobby law enforcement to stop and sue pirate enterprises, file civil litigations, and to pursue voluntary agreements with responsible parties across the internet ecosystem — such as search engines and broadband providers.
On October 31, 2019, they shut down the streaming providers Openload and Streamango. In December 2020, ACE shut down pirate IPTV service Beast IPTV. In May 2021, ACE shut down and seized the domain of popular streaming site 123movies.la. In July 2023, ACE shut down anime pirate site Zoro.to. In August 2024, ACE shut down FMovies, the largest piracy site in the world at the time. ACE shut down pirate sports streaming site Streameast in September 2025.
The organization promotes itself as marking a new level of coordination among multiple stakeholders.
