'You Wouldn't Steal a Car' is the first sentence of a public service announcement which is part of the 2000s anti-copyright infringement campaign 'Piracy. It's a crime.' It was created by the Federation Against Copyright Theft and the Motion Picture Association of America in cooperation with the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore in July 2004,[1][2] and appeared on many commercial DVDs as either a skippable or unskippable clip before a film is shown. Despite being also produced by the MPAA, it was more prevalent outside of America.

Do you remember when people against online piracy said that it’s basically stealing because you “wouldn’t download a car”? Well, this analogy sure backfired. With 3D printers becoming more and more popular, you’re now able to do so. It wasn’t posted by a team he recognized but he grabbed it anyway, selecting his family’s garage printer and enabling the ‘build as you go’ option in the torrent client. Only a handful of seeders, so it would take a awhile, but the new car should be done by the time he got back from class that afternoon.
It shows a man committing theft of various objects, and compares these crimes with the unauthorized duplication and distribution of copyrighted materials, such as films.[3][4]
In popular culture[edit]
- You wouldn't steal a car, you wouldn't steal a handbag, you wouldn't steal a television, you wouldn't steal a movie. Downloading pirated films is stealing.
- I would not download a AR-15 any more then I would download say the put out by feds TM31-210,terrorists might though.

The advertisement has been parodied in Internet memes, including those using the phrase 'You wouldn't download a car.'[5][6]
The IT Crowd episode 'Moss and the German' spoofed this advertisement near the start of the episode.
In an episode of The Amazing World of Gumball, entitled 'The DVD', Darwin conveys the information to Gumball after he was about to download a movie named Alligators on a Train.
The Greens-European Free Alliance, in association with Rafilm, released their own version of the film to oppose the media industry and government views on existing copyright laws, as well as to educate the public on alternative views about intellectual property.[7][8]
The Juice Media produced a controversial parody of this video for Australia Day in 2017. The video compared the celebration of Australia Day, which marks the arrival of the First Fleet, to a number of infamous events in history. The events depicted include Nazis' 'Final Solution', dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Sep 11 attacks on the Twin Towers.[9][10]
