Hollywood and the federal government have partnered to create updated and even more annoying anti-piracy warnings that will be included in new home-release DVDs and Blu-ray discs beginning this week, the government said Tuesday.

Added alongside the FBI’s logo in the new version, however, is a Homeland Security Investigations “special agent” badge.

That screen, like the others, presumably will be made unskippable during viewing.

With that, pirated releases are getting even more favorable than the legal version. Hollywood is trying really hard to make their competition look great.
