What does SIIA do with the report I provide?

SIIA Anti-Piracy - Anti-Piracy FAQ
SIIA processes all piracy reports received. We receive about 120-150 reports a month, but each report is reviewed for accuracy, reliability, completeness, and timeliness. Our approach is very conservative -- we will only pursue a case where we feel very confident that we have reliable and extensive information that the target organization is pirating software. As a result, of the 120-150 reports we receive a month, we only pursue about 25-30 of them.

It's possible that stress, fatigue, or hyperventilation (unusually fast or deep breathing) may trigger seizures during video games in some children with epilepsy. Video games also may trigger seizure activity in children with photosensitive epilepsy (seizures triggered by flashing lights or flickering images), but this affects only 3% of people with epilepsy.
