VIDEO : Game of Thrones Premiere Pirated 54 Million Times Over 24 Hours

Fans are still waiting to see who will end up sitting on the Iron Throne once the dust settles, but Game of Thrones is already well on its way to reclaiming one of its most notorious titles: The most pirated television show of the year. The Game of Thrones season 8 premiere, which debuted on HBO on Sunday, was pirated 54 million times in its first 24 hours, according to a report from digital-piracy tracking firm Muso. On the other hand, the United States came in third on the list with almost 4 million illegal Game of Thrones views, so it seems that people don?t particularly want to pay for HBO if they can help it, either.
