The Anti-Piracy Screen, whether real or fan-made, is a screen bug which shows up on a person pirating video games, TV channels, or other media. Anti-piracy screens are designed to protect digital content from unauthorized copying or usage. Most of the time, these are creepypastas, but there are a few real screens, like the Donkey Kong series of piracy screens.
